donkey kong rainbow cable in reference to the dokert wiring harness

I am not much of a nintendo guy so I don't want to mess this up.

I just got a 2 board set and a dokert wiring harness (from 2 different klovers) Anyway, the instructions with the harness says to connect the rainbow cable to P4 on both boards. This simply isn't possible. It would however connect to P12 on the cpu board and P4 on the other board.

If I need to take pictures I will , but I figure a nintendo guy can straighten me up real quick.
 
here are a couple of pics indicating what P4 looks like on the cpu board and where I think the rainbow cable should go. P4 on the video board and P12 on the cpu board. Because I know so little about nintendo boards, I am posting pics, etc. to find out if I have a bootleg, or a number of others things before I power this thing up.

Dylan, it is not rocket science Brother. With the edge connector up, the rainbow cable goes on the right hand side of the boardset. It only fits in one place, one way. Send me pics if you are still confused.

You have it on correctly.

ha, I got the pics in right when you were responding, funny.

thanks brother, I am not going to be the guy who fried his DK board because it "looked" like it was supposed to go there.

Yeah I was 99.99%, but that .01 has made my ass sore more than once.
