Dash cable tidy

[huw169]

I’ve got a cable running from the L/H usb yo my phone mount and I’d like to tidy it.
Ideally after some micro cable clips to stick to and run under the dash trim where the cable naturally wants to sit.
I can’t find anything small enough and black.
Has anyone else found a suitable solution? I’m not ready to run it behind the dash yet, or more the usb.


Thanks

Thanks @Dellmassive , they did come up in my searches. A bit big unfortunately.
I seems there is very little about specifically for mobile cables. I did find one, but it has a massive footprint.
Most are built for standard 3 core flex, which obviously works for smaller cables if you have a available space for the size of the footprint.
I was really hoping to find something a bit smaller, but thanks for posting.

I saw a post ages ago where someone had used small cable ties, clipped down and stuck in the gap between the panels.

Yes, exactly that route, but I was hoping to find clips that are a bit less obvious.

Probably not much of a need for really small ones.
Thanks

blob of hot glue

Hot glue would certainly be small and discreet

However, I've ordered some of these

Single Hole Cable Holder House Office Car Wire Cord Cable Data Holder Mount Tidy | eBay

It can work well with the nylon cable tie used to secure the wire bundles. Quickly tie and untie the cord and can be used repeatedly. With the self-adhesive base design, this Wire Tie Base is very easy to fix on the smooth surface.

They look like they can be trimmed down easily enough.
Thanks

I’ve used these and can report back that the sticky-tape is pants.

The ones I ordered arrived today. Thy look very discreet, and size up well.
I think the retainer tab will need a trim as my cable is a little on the chunky side, but I'll fit them and take a picture.

I can confirm that these are really easy to cut with a Stanley knife. Now let’s see how long they stay attached.
