Here's my $.02 on the labeling issue: Mine ar not labeled. I leave the cables plugged in to the module. The cables are neatly bundled into a harness, with the appropriate cable exiting the harness at the proper position. Once all the pads are mounted, I mount the module, lay out the harness, and just plug them in. I have never gotten it wrong. The only disadvantage, is with spiral wrap, changes are difficult (it takes a long time to wrap-unwrap). Make sure you have the set-up you want before you harness. I use a large diameter wrap at the module, and a smaller one once some of the cables are out. There is one branch in the harness that runs down the left vertical tube that carries the kick and HH foot control cables down to the floor. There is a different type of wrap i saw once on an infomercial that was very easy to wrap and unwrap, but i have not seen it since. I don't like the 'corrugated' split type tubing. It seems to cut into the cables.But it is easier to wrap. The harness keeps the cables tightly bound together, and is almost invisible when properly positioned.
