That picture was as good as I could get the original.
Here is another picture. This one shows the actual metal cover removed and placed on the ground. The picture is taken from the book, Canada's Fighting Vehicles.

When I owned a WIRE 3, I studied that picture intensely, trying to figure out how to fit the installation.
I huffed and puffed and tried to fit the chorehorse onto the running board step many times...to no avail. Either there was an excessive overhang or there was an impingement with the upper structure when the metal cover was in place. It would also seem that if the unit was successfully installed, that the co-driver would have some difficulty gaining access to the cab.
