Default Noisy Mast

My wiring is run through 1 1/8" ID foam pipe insulation that you can find
at any Home Depot. Works quite well.

I recently bought a Tartan 30, and I'm very happy with it. The noisy
mast however is driving me crazy. All the halyards run outside the
mast, and I can bungee them silent, but the masthead lights and
antenna are wired inside the mast and clang continiously.
Is there a standard fix for this? I am considering covering the
wires with foam pipe insulation and cable ties. Anyone out there have
any experience, suggestions or comments? Will I be trading thuds for
clangs?
