Heat on o2 sensor cables

Just got a new exhaust manifold (stock) put on Honda 04 Civic LX. Lower o2 sensor is on left side now andup a litlle higher so it passes closer to the manifold where ther is no heat shield. I am a little concerned about the amount of heat hitting that cable. Anyone have any ideas of how to remedy this problem? Thanks

Ziptie it to the subframe, its the only way to go!

Or if you want to waste more time, you could wrap your pipes with that fire-retardant exhaust wrap in the areas around the cables as well, but it isnt necessary as long as your cables arent directly near the hot runner pipes.
