I bought a DETOLF display cabinet from IKEA and some lights for inside it. My problem now is hiding the cables. I am looking for spiral binding but so far I've only been able to find it in black. I want either white or clear. I've been to Bunnings, Autobarn and Harvey Norman to no avail. Any ideas?? I don't know where else to look.
Go to an electrical supplier, they will have it
yep. i've seen it at suppliers before.
MM electrical
EIW
Lawrence and Hanson - L and H
NRP
Rexel (not sure if these guys are still around)
are some of the companies that might have it or should be able to get it in or point you in the right direction, depending on exactly what you need.
these companies might only be in W.A. but i would think the top 3 would be nationwide.
also if you know someone who knows an electrician they might get it cheaper.
some suppliers can be a bit funny if you're not in the trade, not usually but sometimes.
How about John R. Turk - Electrical & Data Supplies?

Thanks guys!
You can buy it in little packets of like 2 metres. Should be no more than $15
Maybe try clear cable ties.....
I would usually drop by the shop to buy instead of ordering online. If you are ordering online, ebay or other internet sites have heaps of other options.
I called Lawrence and Hanson and they have exactly what I need. Going by after work to pick some up. Thanks for all your help everyone :)
hey man go to bunnings or clark rubber, they have clear tubing that you can put your cables in, you just need to slice them down the side and very cheap!
I got the spiral stuff from L&H and it worked a treat, it looks great.
Pics or it didn't happen
Please excuse the crappy photos, I was far too lazy to bother with correct focus etc.Quote:

Terrible photo but the lights are attached to the framing with little cable ties.

This was a mess at the top until I wrapped it up with the leftover spiral stuff
