Default Battery Compartment Cleanup Help

Ive got a 2007 XL1200N. I'm having a hard time finding advise on wire clean up in the battery compartment. Anybody have any pictures or references I could look at?

I cant see the wires for the cover. Not a problem that needs fixing on my bike. Most all of them need to be there. I just got back from a RIDE and not once did I notice any wires. Sorry

I just can't figure out how people mount solo seats with springs and it looks so clean. With that compartment being so small how they get all the wires to fit neatly.

Post a pic of what your talking about.
might help people that don’t have you model bike make suggestions.
i can also say I put a lithium battery in my ride to create enough space for a compressor for air ride.
