Turkish makamlar finger positions

Hi folks,
I`ve a simple request. I need a site, book, to SEE the finger positions for the makams. I DON`t READ music, though I have played oud and saz for years.
Where can I find this?
I play many makam by ear, but there are variations as you know and If I know where they are, I will be able to work with them better. Anybody can help?
