Front headlight level sensor xenon r53

Hey everyone,
I bought a 2006 mcs a couple of months ago. I'm redoing all of the suspension and have hit a snag. When I removed the control arm and inner ball joint I had the headlight level sensor fall out into my hand. I assumed it wasn't bolted in at the ball joint because I only removed the bolt mounting the sensor in the control arm. I also assumed that the additional third hole in the driver's side inner ball joint bracket was for the sensor. Now I'm not so sure.

I can't find any image of the sensor installed to reference how to reassemble it correctly. Does anyone have a diagram that shows the correct way to attach the level sensor to the ball joint?

Many thanks,
Brad

After an hour or so I figured it out...I think.
