how to run wiring for my heated bed?

Hi everyone. Thanks for all of your posts/builds on the smartrapcore.
I've been working on my build and have hit a roadblock.
How has everyone been running their wires for the heated bed to the electronics?
I'm just not sure how to attach them to the platform so they won't get in the way, but also won't cause the wires to flex too much.
I've included pics. And my wiring comes out where I drew the green box in bed2.jpg.
Thanks for any advice!

Hi Chris,

Don't you have a hole for a thermistor in the centre of your heatbed ?
So you'll be able to fix the thermistor from behind. It will be pretty the same.
Don't worry to get the perfect temperature measurement, aluminium catches and diffuse temperature pretty well.
Maybe it's more interesting to print on the aluminium plate on tape or something ?

For the wires, Serge used to fix the ramps inside of the box on the left pannel.
I would keeps the wires away from the Z axis mecanics and turn the connections of the bed from the back to a side.
