48 ida/throttle cable solutions?

I recently installed a weber downdraft onto my 12a, and am now trying to figure out how to build some kind of bracket to hold the factory throttle cable in place at the right tension, which is essentially now too long for the accelerator pedal to work. Does anyone have pictures of how they have their cables set on similar/identical applications? I need to position and build a bracket that will hold the cable using the original two nuts at the end of the sleeved part of the throttle, I'm just not sure how to do it.

the is the best pic i've got of mine, we ended up using a Toyota 22R throttle cable bracket, it just happened to be on the workbench, and it fits like its made for the Rx7 with an IDA
