Torque/Tightening Specs

I’m frustrated in my efforts to source easily discernable torque specs for my 996 C4S. I’ve found them in a table format (i.e., without an accompanying illustration) in my CD of the Factory Shop Manual, but the difficulty is in translating the written description of the part that the bolt attaches to an illustration that employs the same wording. A typical listing reads:
“Control arm on side member M12 x 1.5 120 (89)”
But forming a mental picture of exactly what that “Control arm on side member” looks like as I’m under the car is challenging. I’ve attached a page from a Toyota shop manual which illustrates the assembly, and has the tightening specs of each threaded fastener shown alongside it. Is there any document (possibly the Bentley Manual) that provides the 996 torque specs in a similar fashion?
Thanks.
