I have my printer inside the IKEA enclosure and had modified the MK2S cable cover with an angle to avoid squishing/jamming the cables against the back cover of the enclosure.
 

After modifying my MK2s to be an MK2.5s+, the angled bed cover I had on the MK2S no longer worked.  It no longer fit on the bed due to the screws for the cable connectors being tall, which I fixed by redesigning the cover to allow for the screw heads.  However, after that modification, it still did not work because the positioning of the extruder cables in the MK2.5s+ lower than in MK2S so those would hit the angled cover and drive the bed downwards, NO GOOD!!! 

So, I took both PRUSA cable covers (the one from the MK2S and the one for the MK2.5s+) and remixed them into this one with a 60 degree angle for the cable.

I added cutouts for the cable insulation (else the cover would not rest flat without exerting force).

Slice at 0.20mm, use 20% infill or higher.  Print using Polycarbonate (anything else will melt if you print PC, even if seldom).
