"Over-The-Ear Tube" for my TWag IEM cable?

This has probably been asked countless times, but my search came up empty so here goes..

 

I just received my TWag v2 IEM cable for my JH16's and while I really enjoy them, I miss the plastic-tube thingey that allowed me to bend the stock cable to stay fit down behind my ears without too much jumping around.

 

Is there some solution to this issue?

Buy a bit of that sleeve and use a hair dryer and melt it onto the cable? Something like that lol.

I'd hate to ruin the cable like that :P

actually a very similar way of doing it is just bending it into the shape that best matches your ear. Then with a hairdryer, heat it and it will stay in shape. If it doesn't work then best way is send it back and get the memory wire back on.

Yep.  You can also find a flexible steel craft wire, and glue it in place, then cover it with clear shrink and shrink that down.  Not quite as nice as factory molded memory wire, but workable.
