Zip tying brake sensors to control arm...

Does anyone have a pic of where they exactly zip tied their brake sensors to the control arm or did you tuck it somewhere behind the wheel well? Thanks.

I zip tied mine to the brake line and had zero issues.

The front sensor lines I used black electrical tape to cover up the sensor and from loosing the sensor clips, then zip-tied them behind the brake line B-nut tucked behind the wheel well cowling so their pretty much tucked away and hidden. The rear's bandaged up the sensors just like the front with black electrical tape and then folded them over once or twice and zip-tied them to the upper control arms. No issue's, no brake lights, etc. Works fine.
