Default Where the throttle cable brackets bolt to

So i'm almost done with my full rebuilt top end build. My question which is going to sound pretty retarded, but here goes... Where does the 2 throttle brackets bolt into? I looked for holes on the firewall and saw nothing... Can someone please snap a picture for me, would be greatly appreciated.

thanks i got the civic running today, but check engine light is flashing and didn't have my obd2 reader with me at the time.

also hearing a knocking sound, possible rod knock. Pho-king buying used cars from liars kills me. What happened to honest folks. Well now i may have to find a japan imported in So.Cal that has used engines for sale.
