Oh boy do I know that one. I have countless hours on my harness, but am very happy with the way it turned out. Very little wires are exposed to plain sight, but there's still some.

I probably have at least 240+ hours in my wiring, which included the AAW full harness. I have $1000s in connector bodies, terminals, seals, retainers, wire, tools, and loom. But luckily, I can use it on other cars as well.

There's stuff I had to change along the way, as the car was assembled, which added to the effort. And there's still some stuff I want to make better, but considering the time already spent, felt I can go back and do that stuff for the sake of getting the car on the road.

One thing I did, was to make sure it all was serviceable, which is not an easy task. It took more connectors, and more planning, than if I were to have just 'hooked it all up'. Circuits are fairly well isolated, so if one thing takes a dump, it doesn't take other stuff with it.
