Here's a little minor project that maybe someone can enlighten me on...

After nearly 20 years in the sun, the plastic/rubber covers that protect the wiring and throttle/shift lines from where they exit the transom to where they enter the motors (I'm sure there's a term for them but damned if I know what it is) have finally rotted away. As they appear to be a solid tube, and therefore unable to be replaced without disconnecting all the wires, has anybody come up with a suitable replacement for them that can be installedin place over the wiring, and if so where is a good place to obtain such devices? I was considering using standard conduit, but thought I'd see if anyone has found a more durable or elegant solution, as is usually the case on here :lol:
 
it's called a 2in rigging tube. Disconnect and replace...This keeps things watertite. pay attention as to how the cables and fuel hose all lay in the rubber gromment on the motor....That's the hardest part of the job....Silicone spray helps.
