The cable lengths are marked on the cables themselves. I'm assuming you haven't removed the old ones yet?

On my 2008 42 Lightning the trim tab cables are Mercury Platinum. Port side is 28’ starboard is 22’. I’m trying to find the drive trim cable lengths but have not found any markings. If your going to tear it out for tabs you might has well replace the drive indicator cables.
Look through the slots to see the connection to the pointer arms. It is a threaded rod. Make sure you order the right connectors on each end as there are many to select from.
