How do I reinstall the door latch pull cable?

I’ve got a 1993 E34 BMW 525i. The driver’s window wasn’t working, so I took things apart and fixed it. I’ve now got a new window motor installed and working great. However, in the process of taking things apart I broke the door pull cable. It was frayed and probably due to break soon anyway No big deal, I thought, a genuine new one was only $14: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A...

I’m finally to the phase of putting everything back together, and can’t for the life of me figure out how to install this cable. I need to get it hooked into the latch mechanism, and then get the other end attached to the handle on the door.

Any ideas on how exactly this attaches? Let me know if there’s additional pictures I can take that make it easier to see what’s going on. Thanks!

@luke take a look on here and see if step 8 explains where it goes

Thanks for the link! Step 8 shows the end that I understand where it goes, what I'm trying to figure out is where exactly the other end of that cable attaches.
