Optical Endstops

I have purchased 3 optical endstops to replace my current mechanical endstops, but I have absolutely no idea how or where to mount said endstops.

I have looked online for a guide or two, but I have turned up nothing. not even a picture of where to mount them.

Any help would be appreciated

The parts on my printer are too big to fit into the gap of the optical endstop confused smiley

Just attach something thin to your printer that will slide inside the endstop. Use anything you like, metal, plastic, etc.
