Well I can see why you are asking, their instructions seem to leave out any mention of hooking the cables up.

From looking at the photo of the parts it looks like both cables are the same length and intended to run up to a bracket on each frame rail with a cable connecting them and the cable from the pedal.

You are probably going to need a kit like this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FK47P5S...b-f94ae1ae4c7a

And this equalizer https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0789BCPHP...b-f94ae1ae4c7a

Plus a custom length cable to run between everything. For that you can use a cable out of a donor vehicle I think most GM full size cars or rear wheel drive trucks have a cable that could be cut and have a ferrule swagged on one end to do that or if you are close to a sailboat rigging shop they could make you one up out of stainless if you had the right measurement.
