Anyone tried this? I have a big window on my case and there is couple spesific cables i just want to dissapear. But I dont want to spend 20 bucks on it. Also not comfortable with dismantle the contact pins.

Can i use black tape to do so ? or will it look stupid?

you would be able to do it, but the cables would become too stiff to move around, and you would not want to remove the tape as the cables would become sticky and nasty.

I see. I will try nanoxia wraparound 1/4 instead. No dismantle needed.
