I am seeking your input on motor cable organizing and protection. I am looking at products that will act as a conduit between the motor and the splash well boot. I want protection and want to keep the 2 cycle mess out of the motor cables. What are these: http://www.iboats.com/T-H-Flex-Cable...-view_id.40101. Are they the deals that slip over and then you pull to tighten???

Also, if anyone knows of any good pics and a good looking organized motor cables/steering in the splashwell please let me know.

The cable protection in the link you posted is a mesh type. It will not keep water/oil/fuel off of the cables. Split tubing can be used for that purpose. It is available in various colors and sizes. It installs over the cable via the lengthwise slit in the tubing. Place the slit down and nothing will get into the harness.

Spiral wrap will contain all your wires and is relatively inexpensive. Not water tight but works good. Auto parts stores usually carry it in black.
