I tied mine up with zip-ties.. never had a problem again.I have also used single core electrical copper. that did the trick just as much on another ford. When it comes to someothing under the bonnent, people dont see it, so i see no reason why you cant compromise there. Spending £230 on the same thing would be completley insane!
