Default Unkown parts

Hi everyone

I picked up a trunk load of rusty carrier bits on Saturday. Im having trouble identifying these ones. Can anyone help me out. The carrier was most likely a 1943-44 build.

The first item looks like the brackets to hold a radio tray in place. I know they had these on the mk2 carriers (I believe they were over the stowage bin over the left gas tank if I recall). A similar bracket was later used in the 50s for the C-42 radio sets.

3 of the brackets in the lower photos look like the seat back brackets.

The first bracket is the radio bracket goes right behind the driver in the rear compartment It's welded to the fender along the armour on the right and on the left is a seat that folds down and it has the same bolt pattern on a piece of angle iron bolted to it. The second pictures of the angle bracket with the small hole is the same ones that I'm trying to find out about. They are on each side of the drivers and gunners seats at he bottom. then there is a double hole one in the middle higher up Part no.CTL14303(drivers side.)

The third picture is one of the stops for the fuel switch lever. There are two of these. They are down on the bulkhead right behind the gear shift . The lever moves from one to the other.
