sub frame locations

For those with subframes, Where do they weld to?
In the rear, do they usually go to the lower control arm channel or the other channel located slightly further inboard? Got any pics? The fronts are more straight forward as I assume they weld to the lower, big flat piece located rearward and slightly inward of the wheel well opening.
I have my chassis builder putting in subs tomorrow, custom made, and I would like to see how they typically weld up.

The subframe connectors bolt to the rear subframe right around the LCA and then welds there. It sounds like you know where the front of the connector mounts. Here is a link to instructions and pics. http://www.bmrfabrication.com/instructions/sfc001.htm
