Im fixing to reinstall my harness for my Time Pilot, and I really dont like the staple and wire tie method. What do you guys recommend? My MK has the plastic hook things, and those seem real convenient. Where can I get those? Any other options?
 
Most hardware stores carry the white wire holders I get mine FRom
home depot and have used them on all my rebuilds and multi game builds
I'd stay away fro
the peel and stick holders as they will fall off fast
 
You can also get the wire ties with the built in eye and screw it to the cabinet. Their called Mounted Head Cable Ties

Those look like a nice option, I've used the cable loop things about 1.5" ID with a screw to close it before. That you have to unscrew it to move the wires is a bit annoying, but the wires won't be coming off a hook by accident.

VVVVV Yeah that's the ones I used, though with the ones I found leaving it open turned into the wire bundle falling off of it, gotta find smaller ones next time.

What I do is clip the top piece just in front of the mounting hole so they look like the old style open clamp where you can just slide the wires in. That way you don't need to undo the whole thing just to get the wires in or out.
