here's a real stupid trick,that i like when doing wiring...say you want to wire a switch or something with 3 wires(could be any number,but i used 3)...so you run 3 wires..now you have 3 wires dangling under your dash...you could wrap them up with tape,but tape costs money,it's sticky and you can't see the wires so it makes it a pain in the ass if anything bad ever happens...you could use alot of wire ties,but again with the money...so what i think looks clean,it's easy to do and is FREE is...take one end of the wires and put em in a vise..take the other end and tighten em in your drill...now pull the trigger and put a little tension on the wires and you have a clean twirl...looks neat,you can see any problems,and it's free http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Don't they "want" to unravel?
