I bought my Fountain used and it has a bracket that is mounted in the engine compartment. I will try to get a pic for you tomorrow.

I cut about 1.5" off each end of my anchor, just enough so it will fit under the seat.......I know the extra length of that top bar helps stabilize the anchor so it will set properly but it works fine and I anchor quite a bit...........doug

I did the same thing, cut off the rods flush with the flukes to fit in the rear seat.. I never understood what good the extra 3" or so per side the rod did. Never been a problem so far.
