Default 1973 Ezgo Accelerator Switch Install

I was given a 1973 EZGO w/ the 175CC Fuji engine, the prior owner has pulled the wiring and bypassed the plunger style accelerator switch so you started the engine and left it running to go. I intend to put the micro switch back in so cart starts/runs by pressing the gas pedal. However I cannot find a diagram or picture to see how this switch installs, what presses the switch, etc. Any help, description, picture or diagram would be appreciated.

WELCOME stand by I'm sure someone can help but as a starter I would disconnect the battery then with the seat off depress the throttle and watch the linkage movement. The switch may have been mounted under the cart or under the seat. Maybe the old switch is still there and just bypassed. In any case I'm sure someone out there has a 70's cart that can help. Again stand by or start looking. K

As racin says, follow the link. Just inside the firewall the solid rod actuates the lever that pulls the throttle cable. Just there is the microswitch. Here is a picture.

Thank you for the diagram, all the prior hardware and linkage does not currently exist. They removed it all and ran a throttle cable straight to carb. This will allow me to rebuild it all with my new switch I ordered. Thanks!
