Neat wiring job question
arzoo:
I used a combination of p-clips and tie-wraps. Here’s a trick you can do with the tie-wraps to keep the wires secured – before clipping off the extra length, use a staple gun to attach the leg of the tie-wrap to the cp. If the staple isn’t tight against the wrap, you can loop it through one time. Here’s a picture of some of my wiring. If you look closely at the gray ribbon cables for the rgb LEDs, you can see how I did it.

Even though not perfect yet (CP will be replaced), I think my wiring is pretty neat:

Yep, p clips and LOTS of cable ties to keep the wires bundled together.

Excellent looking wiring job arzoo. I use the staple & zip tie method usually, with the odd 'p' clip thrown in where needed. Some materials don't take staples too well, so you have to us the clips. The biggest thing that will help keep your wiring neat is make sure it is secured well. And use zip ties on the branches of the harness to keep everything together and neat.

I used the wire clips you nail in and some cable ties. Worked well for me.
