Suggestion: Sell SSD/HD cable bundles for the 2011/12 MBP

Text:

The reason I am  bringing this up is I had to answer another question relating to the HD cable failure in a non-Unibody MBP where the OP tested it in an enclosure and it was yet another failed HD cable. The question I am referencing can be found [https://www.ifixit.com/Answers/View/604996/Folder+With+%22%22+Mark+Into+Apple+Logo+Into+Circle+With+Line+&+Repeat#answer604997|here].

I have patched the 2012 guide to caution people on this issue and referenced the HD cable guide, but what seems like the best solution to nip this issue entirely is to sell a SSD/HD cable/electrical tape bundle to get the odds in the system owners favor and remove some of these questions. I’m sure you have a 2011/12 MBP to show how the patching process is done.
