The wires were little lights. There are also some other things, like the film camera used to document the first manned landing on the moon.

And there was also a piece of gear named after him in the Lunar Module. The "McDivitt purse." A small canvas bag used to secure items that might otherwise fly around the cabin.
Fun fact: Neil Armstrong squirreled away the "McDivitt purse" from the Eagle, with a lot of cool spacecraft parts in it. He had it at the bottom of his closet and it was not discovered until he died. I think this was a little joke be played on us all.
