Risers enabling the reach of the filament sensors in Prusa XL when located inside a 60cm Ikea cabinet.
Maintains the original function and the logical order of intakes. Left and right riser are the same. Cables tuck in. Use either of two screws, or both, to mount each to the printer.
You need longer cables though, Molex part no. 15135-0506, "Molex 5 Way Male CLIK-Mate to 5 Way Male CLIK-Mate Wire to Board Cable, 600mm".
I got these from RS-online, stock No.: 134-9063. Check the connections!, the connection order was wrong, reversed, so it had to be rearranged to be the same as the original cable.

Distrelec : 302-90-073

Pictures of the re-joined cable with shrink tube isolation over the soldering, how electrical tape is used to help keeping it in the channel, filament paths from aloft and from below.
I printed in PETG, 0.4mm nozzle, Structural 0.25 mm layers. Perhaps with too much support material, but it did the job.
I use them in combination with https://www.printables.com/model/1049739-filament-guide-sheave-for-ikea-metod-enclosure and https://www.printables.com/model/1048710-spool-anywhere .
( For the guide sheaves also consider https://www.printables.com/model/1388477-larger-diameter-center-wheel-with-bearing by user “Snille”. I never found ball bearings necessary though. )
