Default Throttle cable direction..

I am having difficulty remembering how the throttle and idle cables are set on the grip. It has been a long time since I removed the old bars and grips, till I got the new bars painted and the new grips on the bars. Now I am having a moment, "getting old sucks". I am trying to figure out how the throttle and idle cables go around the grip. So that when you twist the throttle it opens up the butterfly on the carb. I have looked up all kinds of videos but they are all about changing out just the grips. I have the cables in the right holes on the housing, they are different sizes that get inserted into the bottom of the grip housing. Needing to get a video or diagram on the way the cables lay in the inside of the grip. Any ideas on where to look would be much appreciated. I am walking away from the bike tonight, tired and confused. Will try again tomorrow. Thanks to anyone who can offer suggestions.

The twist grip needs to pull the throttle cable.
