How did the cables attach to the top of the rear cab struts ? I can't find a clear enough photo of this .

Sorry for the small size of images. The cables are attached to the metal end of the struts, looks like a ball joint. I marked the details with arrows, on the images taken from a description manual.

Well Pete , I tried this and ended up a few complications with the tape and couldn't for the life of me find small enough drywall screws  ;)
