Never ever use cable ties as they'll only melt.

Do a proper job and use a coathanger..............

yeah i've supplemented the zip ties with dirty great metal jubilee clips now, the zip ties were a last-minute thing to get me to work(where i could nick some more appropriate fasteners). Hasn't dropped off yet, though a copper gave me a right dirty look earlier, but it only has to last til friday morning. :)
