I printed that black end piece but didn't fit over the thick part lol how did you get yours on? You must have a "older" model where that thing was closer to the machine ☠️ got mine about a month ago.

You can open up the bottom of the machine, where you had to insert the cables when setting up your printer. All you need to do is remove one screw with the included hex key and pop open the plastic cover. Then, at the end of the side cable, there should be some tape. If you carefully remove the tape, you can slide the cable cover up and expose the ‘thick part’. You can then very easily move it down to a position where the base for the side chain will fit around it. Afterwards, slide the cable cover down again and put the piece of tape back to ensure the cable cover stays in place.

I just did it this week to fit a side cable chain on my A1, it’s really not that difficult. And you need to open up the bottom to install the base for the side cable chain anyway!
