I've been meaning to find brown hot glue. But I looked at Hobby Lobby - no dice.
So, when the tube length ratio to the new caps' allows it (I first have to put some wadding so the hot glue does not hit the new cap, and it takes space too), I put hot glue first, and then melt on some old wax, I try to use the easily meltable type, for looks. If there is no space, I use hot glue only: wax does not hold well, even if there is a lot of it, while hot glue sticks very well to both the casing and the wires and holds very reliably.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
