Uh, actually the wires go on the top, as in the picture below!
Adding the 67 years of original dust is optional
On each end, a wood screw first goes through a washer, then through the insulator on bleeder resistor, then a second washer, then a 3/8 inch spacer with a built in collar towards the cabinet.
Do a trial assembly outside, and measure the protrusion to avoid accidentally penetrating the cabinet panel.
Your 1948 8TCS41 is in a slightly different black perforated box than my 1949 8TCS41.
One final thing, don't attach the skirt until you have set up all the adjustments. When you stick your hands inside that set to make the final adjustments, you want to see where you are poking your hands.
The only wiring layout that I have is for the 1949 model and my chassis are in the basement and the cabinet is in the garage.
The two differences I'm aware of are:
One, you have the original projection barrel, and I think the shielded HV lead is dressed to the rear, and not in front of the barrel (as viewed from the back of the cabinet.) You also want to keep it away from the speaker.
The other difference is the "Local/Remote" switch was standard on the 1949, but was an expensive extra on the 1948.
I'm assuming that your 8TCS41 does not have the Local/Remote knob to the right of the channel selector, when viewed from the front.
Hope this helps!
