ON a 33 AVS 2000. It has little chrome cover where they passed through. I did not not the angle of the cables before I replace the transom.

Order these. Mount on transom and use as a jig. Very nice and clean.

So it is not the same as the transom. But the drill attachment is grteat.
The angle fittings are nice. and they are about 45 degrees right. Really nice looking! it says 1/2 inch I though the cables were smaller than that?

They have gaskets in them. Once the cable is through you install a rubber seal then a plastic piece then tighten down.
