I used this http://www.fast-lad.co.uk/store/product_info.php?cPath=27_33&products_id=692 to mount an ATG sensor to the inside the frames of my 600n. What the picture doesn't show is a wedge shaped piece of covered balsa (Toblerone style) that's used as a shim between the bracket and the sensor to rotate and position the sensor in line with the fan magnet.
Unfortunately, I didn't take any pictures, I just followed these pictures loosely: http://www.aerospire.com/trex600n_mount.html and mounted mine on the inside.
I studied Bob's 600n videos too(particularly No.7 from here: http://www.helifreak.com/showthread.php?t=41514); and then just cracked on with the retro fit, making sure
the final installation was secure, gave a good signal, and the wires were routed safely away from any moving parts.
Hope this helps a little,
