Securing handbrake cable with non factory trailing arms

I have just replaced the lower rear trailing arms (control arms) on my 2003 GU Petrol. The handbrake cable was attached to the original trailing arms by a bracket that was welded on, i think it was to secure the cable and also prevent it frm getting nipped against the chassis when the wheels are articulating. What has anone else done to secure the handbrake cable when replacing the factory arms? Photos would be really appreciated.

Cheers

Steve
