    All of those units look great.. but the wiring would bother me too much.

    Here is what I did for my wiring. I could have opted for a 6-in-1 cable instead, but would have taken more time to order the wire, then hope it would be as flexible as this option. I made the leads short to match my needs, but could easily have been lengthened to clean it up a tad. There are a bunch of options for clean wiring out there... but cleaner is usually more expensive.

    Yup, about the same solution I imposed for the wires. They're all gathered into a cable wrap.
