LMC Aux Battery Tray 73-87 - Where does it mount?

1973 K10 Suburban
I decided to get all fancy with Suburban camping rig and hook up an aux battery. Just got the bracket/tray from LMC Truck.

Probem is, I have no idea where it's supposed to mount. You would think if it was a stock option (diesels, etc) it would be obvious. It aint.

Anyone done this that would not mind posting some pics of how yours went in?

Much appreciated!
Nick

Found this one at the local Pull-A-Part. Looks close to yours. Mounts on the driver's side. Didn't come with a battery tray. Was planning on mounting a small storage box. That hasn't happened yet.

What model year is your truck? 81-87 are different from those pictured here. They have a triangular shape which bolts to the inner fender and two bolts go into threaded holes on the inside of the main fender. Later versions also have a small clip which fits between the inner fender and the rear edge of the battery tray.
