Helpful Expert Reply:
If you are talking about the short cables used as a fail safe between the base plates, # RM-52289-5, and the truck the short answer is anywhere that you can. If you can loop them around any part of the base plates that would be sufficient.
If you are talking about the cables that go from the front of the toad to the back of the RV then there are safety cable tabs on each side shown in the included picture.
