The cleanest way I've found to spring-load the SRAM levers is looping an elastic through the horizontal bar through which the brake cable would go, and then threading it out through the big hole on the top of the horn section and around the lever body. It's invisible with the hood on and it doesn't come apart if you pull on it too hard. I also added a bit of cotton to the edge of the hole to reduce wear on the elastic.
