Tim, I'll try and visit my boat this lunchtime and I'll take some photos for you. I replaced the original traveller track with a harken track and car (making sure I bought the compatible both hole pitch rather than the new one - I bought it from Mauri Pro and it fitted the old holes perfectly)
I have a double sheet system with a trim setup - you'll see in the photos. This allows me to flatten the main really hard - very important in sailing San Francisco Bay.
