the diagram bigbrowndog posted shows the opposite.
Its been a while since i had one open, but i vaguely remember the nuts on the inside of the assembly.

Seems its been a while and you cant read a diagram too
Because the bolts for the backing plate are clearly depicted in the diagram coming through from the inside, as i said, the nuts for the backing plate will be on the outside visible from the outside of the vehicle.
