Probably. I just tacked them on that way because I thought they looked
funny. :-)

My thought for holding the fibres in place was to poke them through
the front face of the adapter and fill it with clear resin (the white
stuff inside the red adapter in my model). Not having ever used fibre
optics I don't know if this is even feasible.

As for a way to hold the fibre, I think this type of coolant hose
would be pretty good.

Cheers,

Dave
