Default starlink mounting on 3200 radar arch

Has anyone mounted a dishy 3 to their radar arch and tried to run the antenna cable through the arch, gunnel and into the cabin? I think I may have damaged the cable trying to get through the arch into the gunnel?

Default cable was fine

Turns out the mount they sell for a dishy 3 to go on the arch, won't let you plug in all the way. You have to plug the dish in before you mount it.

No note of that in the instructions?

Default sadly no

nothing in the mount instructions mentions the cable needs to go in before mounting. the frame of the mount is designed to hold the cable in place once its set.
