Anyone want to do my engine bay wiring? (Paid of course)

I had a bash at it today just tring to figure out where all the bloody wires go is a pain in the arse.
Just want all the engine bay wires tidied up and re wrapped, replace the alternator and starter wires and removed the old engine loom in preperation for a new one from Ryan.
I'm in Solihull near Birmingham and the whole engine is out so loads of room to work is a 3 Door by the way.
Any takers reply on here or pm me.
Cheers Rich

I just retaped a loom, is piss easy as Ginge said, just a case of cutting off the gooey shitty crap old tape, then getting yourself a couple rolls of good insulation tape then start off and on each wrap around overlap slightly the last wrap around. If you get good you can build up quite a speed, just keep it reasonably tight so it doesnt end up double the thickness that it was. I did a mates one last week whilst watching a film, just sitting there with it all on the floor infront of me.
