After having my Y-cable snag a few times on the clutch knobs, one time with damage to the cable, I came up with a simple solution:

Buy a "Kinder Surprise" chocolate egg. Eat chocolate, do not eat the plastic egg. Open plastic egg, assemble toy that's inside or discard it.

Now you have two halves of the plastic egg. The male part can be trimmed down a bit and fits snugly over the clutch knobs, the female part fits loosely over the clutch knobs, you may insert some tape to have it fit better. This provides an easily removeable cover and due to its smooth rounded surface, the cable cannot catch on the clutch knobs anymore.
