I have overengineered a cable guide for my Direct Drive Ender 3 V2 setup. It uses the original Extruder Stepper Motor mount (42 x 42 mm) to guide the power cable to the hotend. The ball bearings allow the cables to follow any movement of the print head.

The cable guide works with other Creality 3D Printers as well.
