Default Rear blind 401

I’m restoring a 401 (one of the last, 1951) and taking apart the usual problems of making a new wood fillet to hold the rear window and allow the roof lining to be fixed on it, I’m trying to reinstall the rear blind. The Workshop manual describe the operating manner of the all system (with wire cables of correct diameter (26 S.W.G.) passing through the two rear eyelets in the head lining, passing through wire conduits (still in place - picture) and converging through the central eyelet in the front and then connected to an “erinoid” ring. Would it be possible for some owner to send me some pictures (rear and front) of that construction (the visible part of it : how are the cables (rear) properly fixed to the blind – how are those cable in the front, one or two, how are/is the cable connected to the front ring ?).
Thank you in advance for any information and picture
