Gateway laptop LCD wiring

My friend's laptop's DC jack was broken so he took it to a repair place. They took it apart but didn't now how to fix it, so he asked me to work on it. Fixing the DC jack was very easy, but since I was not the one who took the laptop apart, I'm having some trouble putting it back together. This laptop is a Gateway 7324.

The LCD panel has several wires coming out. It is easy to tell where most of them connect to the motherboard, but I cannot figure out two of them. They are small connectors, about 2 mm diameter. They appear to be gold-plated or at least they have a gold color. The connectors are hard to describe and I've never seen anything like them.

Electrically, they seem connected to ground. When I put a meter between a ground connector (on the LCD assembly) and the small gold connectors there is continuity. Here are some pictures.

What I need to know is: Where do these connect to the motherboard?

One other question: What appears to be the data connector is symmetrical. Is there any way to figure out which way it goes in to the connector on the motherboard?

Thank you.
