Rolls Royce 1914 Pattern Interior

Aside from the 2 pictures that seem to turn up everywhere (the one off Flickr of the dashboard and turret front, and the one with the 2 crewmembers - both previously posted here) is there a "good" drawing or overhead of the early interior of the 1914 pattern cars.
The Resicast kit has just the one seat cushion and very little else (according to the new Osprey book that is probably correct, but how was the "back sling" attached and did the gunner just stand, or was there a belt for him in the turret?
Rodin's model has 2 seats but that is more like the 1920 pattern upgrade and unfortunately the Osprey book's excellent cut-away drawing is also of the 1920 pattern car.

The "Black & Tan" photo shows a "Back Rest" which I would believe is a "field mod" which seems to be the norm for these cars.

I'd like to model the 1914 during the immediate post-war years in the Middle East when the top of the turret was often removed for cooling, but the interior needs to be worked on for that.

Thanks
Mike
