Location of the looms were mentioned...and would naturally be located where the tailgate and body of he car remain the closest as the tailgate is opened/closed (look up near the hinges where the tailgate is attached to the body of the car).

Also see #3 in the "added" diagram below which also indicates the location of the major wiring harness that goes from the body of the vehicle to the tailgate:
