I have a Mountain Mods U2-UFO case and I want to hide some of the wires. I bought UV red wires for everything, unfortunatly, I guess to SVC that means they could be orange or pink and still be considered red. So I have a bunch of cables that do not match my color scheme, or even each other now. What I want to do is wrap them in some type of sleeving without having to remove everything from my case and take the ends off of all the connectors. I want something unique also, but it has to be either red or black to match my color scheme. Does anyone have any idea's or links to some sleeves that might fit the bill? Thanks in advance.
 
well i mena when you light them up they will be the color you wanted.... thats why they look that way now. not a full answer just a lil input
 
Actually that is with them lit up. I've had this case put together for almost a year. It took me 3 days to run the wiring because of the size of the case. I had to splice a lot of wires together to go from one side of the case to the other. I have neon orange and neon pink wires laying next to each other, that I'd like to wrap with true UV red or just RED, it doesn't matter as long as it matches the paint on the case.

Here is a rough picture of it, I'll try to get better ones with the newer upgrades I've just added. You can't see the UV because I used the flash in this.

You CAN get flex-sleeves, that might open up enough to go over a connector, but it'd be a bitch to do. You'd honestly be better off taking off any connector the size of a molex or larger. The flex-sleeves will go over a molex, but the heatshrink to make the ends look clean probably won't... so you'd have to use zip ties.
