Caution! Some minor issues can be caused by bundling wires or making them "neat" when the factory did not build them that way. Sweep currents of multiple amperes live with signal currents of millivolts in a TV, and moving wires from their original dress can induce sweep interference into the picture.

As an example, when I worked at Motorola, the assembly line for a given chassis had an approved sample locked in a clear plastic case, and the assemblers were told to duplicate the physical placement of all components and wires. Any question of doing it differently was run past engineering, who would change the sample and write an accompanying official change notice.
