Nothing much of the original left, but thanks to lord_alan for inspiring me, anyway.

Clips to the H-frame of the heat bed without disassembling it, all you need to do after that is tying the cable into the relief.

If you - like me - routed the cable to the heat bed through the hole in the upper left side of the frame during assembly (as pr. instructions) you might have too little cable for this and will need to re-route the cable around the back. Not as bad as it sounds, unless you already soldered your cable to the bed :/

You may need to fidget a bit to get it in place. I had to sand the taps just a smidge. Also make sure everything is clear before running your printer! Everything is pretty tight around there. As it is now, the wires exit close to the same height as the y-axis stepper, so make sure to bend them up and over. (I created a wedge for helping with this. Not a problem here, but there it is :)

This will need a little support when being printed. Also not sure how this will hold up in the long run, but for now it seems to be doing ok.

update march 22nd: running rock steady ever since, not even going to bother to solder the loose connections. Also: the lack of a strain relief is probably what caused my problems to begin with, so if you haven't, install one (any one) now!
