Many, many years ago I worked in a shop that made harnesses during the summers. We would get a build sheet for each car and had a cart with various hooks. You would push the cart and pick up the various wires, switches and whatever for the options listed on the build sheet. Wouldn’t really take any more or less time depending on the options.
