Ultra Trunk lid cable no cost solution

does the lid cable on your ultra's trunk get in the way when closing it? I know it happens to all of us once in a while. There are a lot of after market things out there to make it go away for a price.
I had got inspired one day coming home from work...
Some of us have security badges to get around the building at work. You know, those ones that are on your belt and you pull it out and it retracts back to your side? Unsnap your badge, tell management you lost your so you get a new one. Take it and put some double sided tape on it and stick it to the lid about 1/2 way. Snap the plastic thingie to the cable and it automatically pulls it it when you close the trunk lid! VIOLA!!!!
A no cost solution! :newsmile061: Why didnt I think of that before!!!
 
Or, you can unfasten one end of your cable and give it one twist (I forgot if it's left or right), and reattach. Now when you close the lid, the cable will coil into the pack instead of out of the pack.
