Valve Index VR headset cable support waist clip

This clip is designed to be attached to a Valve Index headset cable (or other 5-7mm diameter cables) and prevent it from pulling down on the headset. When I first used the headset I noticed that the weight of the cable pulled the headset to one side and made it difficult to fine tune the fit and positioning.

The clip can hook onto a front or rear pants pocket or waist, belt, etc. It attaches to the cable using two small zip ties (I am using 2mm wide by 1.2mm thick ties). It is designed for a 6.2mm diameter cable, but it should also fit slightly larger or smaller cables.

Leave the zip ties a little loose until you find the ideal position, then tighten and clip the ends. Make sure to move your head around, bend forward, twist, crouch, etc. before tightening the zip ties. Adding 10cm of extra slack can't hurt either.

If you happen to come across a forum thread mentioning this problem, please consider posting a link to this thing. I won't get any money (unless someone tips me), but I do think this could be widely useful, and something like it would be great to see included with the Index.
