Electrics Tidy
I've wired it all up now, just wondering what people have done or used to loom it or tidy it up behind the dash, behind the dash at the mo it really messy, ive used this jml cable tidy stuff for binding the wires together, although not orginal I thought it would make it easier for future access

Yep, loops can be a problem...
The best way, using tape is remove them and tape up, then replace...
Dont use the cheap insulation tape, it eventually beomes messy
Another 'trick' to give the old fashined look.
get the wires as tidy as possible and not crossing, and the right lengths to 'lay' well.
Then using that old looking brown string, like what butchers used for rolled roasts....
Tie looped 1/2 hitches every 3/4 inch, and keep tidy.....this lasts forever.
