Default Vodou rear shock mount

First post on this forum.
I am just getting started. I have not cut any metal yet but plan to next week. Have my Miata donor too.

So there is a lot I like about the Vodou plan. One think I am over looking or is missing is how do the rear shocks mount?

The miata uprights don't have provisions for them.
There is no mention or room for a mount on the upport wishbone, so where should they go?

Thanks
Drew

Well, I think I figured it out.

Look like the shocks mount between RA5 and the lower control arm. They don't show this in the drawings. Am I on the right path?

You would be correct in thinking that and you'll need 10" open coil overs.
