Correct positioning of the home button cable?

I am replacing my digitizer and I can’t seem to find any detailed guides or comments/questions for the reassembly of the screen, most importantly the correct way to place the home button cable. I know it’s tricky to maneuver the side cables in so they won’t get bent or crushed when laying the digitizer down, but the home button cable has me baffled! It doesn’t seem like it fits correctly when trying to close the screen. How in the world does it actually lay without getting crushed??

The images seen at Step.40 and Step.41 in the ifixit iPad Air LTE Front Panel Assembly Replacement guide, may be of some help.

It kinda did somewhat, but I think my replacement screen has a slightly longer ribbon cable than the original. Thank you for your help!
