Tidy Up Engine Bay Wiring

I'm not a big fan of engine dress up, but I would like my engine bay to be a bit less cluttered. After installing gauges, two electric water pumps, Homelink mirror, GT500 fuel pump, and raptor shift light, I'm left with an enormous mess of wires, yards of split loom tubing, adapters, fuses, and relays.

There seem to be quite a few adapters that could be eliminated, particularly the ones that only have 1-3 wires. The ones I speak of are near the front passenger side valve cover.

Has anyone else fabricated some brackets to mount the mass of relays, or removed adapters, maybe spliced and lengthened some wires to move things around?

If so, I'd like to see a few ideas.

I'd been planning this all along, get some split tubing and tie wraps. Work as you, not when your finished.

Didn't you hear, if you joined TMS after July '07 you have to use your V.I.N. # now because we have to many members and ran out of user names

There goes accessing the board away from home. I can barely keep my passwords straight, let alone a 100 character username.
