What is in the way?
You will need to bridge E1 with T(E)1 to get consistent result.

p/s pump and hoses, engine mount, most of the engine bay..... might just have to remove the r/h inner guard.

those two terminals where abouts are they located?

not sure if this is right but when i took my car to the mechanic to get timing done, he just used the timing light on the PS pump belt and #1 cylinder whilst bridging E1 and TE1.

you should be able to see the marks a little of center. down next to the mount. From memory the timing is to be done at 800rpm.
