Just curious....what are you guys using to patch the plastic sleeve after cutting it short?

Both of my rear headrests stopped working but I hear the motors. So it's a problem with the sleeve. I've read of two methods of securing the sleeve again and was going to do a test in my car to see which one provides a more reliable fix. These are the link I'm using for reference:

To a degree it doesn't really matter as all it has to do is hold the cable in place so it can do it's work. It does need a small amount of mechanical strength though, and the engineer in me says the fuel hose/clamp fix is stronger than the shrink wrap/cable tie fix!
