Cable p clip attachment point on SOTA?

Hi,

Got my 1st SOTA table, an Old Sapphire. I have an Origin Live Illustrious arm on it with a Haha ML.

Loving it! So much so that I ordered a refurbished table from them rather then spending money to rehab this one..

The question is about where to secure the tonarm cable? The table I have now has a convenient hole where a previous owner had something attached to the back. I asked SOTA where to attach a cable clamp and they told me don’t bother.

O.L. on the other hand says to use a clip or something to keep the cables from being pulled or interfere with the suspension movement. I agree with this.

Once the new table gets here, I’ll need to find a good attachment point as I’m not too eager to drill a hole in the new cabinet.

Any good ideas? Somewhere on the underside maybe?

Lowes sells stick on cable clips.  Peel off the backing and put it anywhere.  Located in the electrical aisle.

Thanks, 

I am aware of these and use them. Since those clamps don't tighten up, I feel like the cable would still be too free to move.

You did remind me of something though, One of those self adhesive mounts that are used with a zip tie might be better. 

A inconspicuous place to sink a screw is still something I'd prefer.
