close up of the front upper right corner of the board sitting in it's mounting spot.

there is a bk/rd/yw wire plugged into the back of the board.

on the right there is a 'gold' ribbon cable also plugged into the back.

the bk/rd/yw wire is a snap in clip as usual

the ribbon cable slides, silver edge revealed down, into a slot. it does not clip in or lock in any manner.

the ribbon cable is rigid, it is somewhat flexible, but difficult to damage. if you crimp it, that would probably be the worst thing and may break it.
