Question Mechanical Trim and Drive Indicators

Hi Folks,Getting to the point of putting our project boat in the water, I have Twin Drive and Twin Tab Mercury Mechanical indicators...Feeding the cables in were a pain..Anybody out there got an easy way of setting up 4 cable indicator..Short of pulling it out of dash ..???

As always Thanks for every body's help and suggestions

Hydraulic hose places typically custom make those cables too. The Detroit Diesel (Central Detroit Diesel) dealer in Wichita, KS makes them also.
I'd call around to a few industrial equipment places around your area. I'm sure you'll find what you need locally.
