Most of my past experience with wiring was automotive, so initially I used 16-18 gauge hookup wire.
I noticed other people using old Cat5 cable and such, but figured bigger was better.
Then with my driving cab I started having issues with the bulk of the wire being an issue when it came time to put panels back together.
For next wiring project, I ordered 22 gauge because it was easy to find.
I was taken back by how much less room the wiring takes up and how much easier it is to organize.
I've stuck with 22 gauge since because it's easy to find in bulk and in multiple colors.
That said, if it's a pre-wired harness I see no reason in going to the expense and hassle of replacing it.
