[QUOTE="jmcaswell, post: 291086, member: 10127"] After doing much research and study about my steering system and my control box I now understand what i got. Thank goodness my in place control box has a 14' electrical harness run- so the only thing that needs replacing is the throttle and shift cables. Which I can replace the existing 9' cables with 14' for roughly $60 Cables- https://www.go2marine.com/item/98977/control-cables-model-cc179-replaces-cc635-for-mercury-controls-cc17914.html TINXPERTS- Question--- The cable run is to a center console and I dont want to run out and around the gunwale, I want to run down to floor, up the spine and then up to center console where the side mount control box will be located. this is alot of bends and turns- A) CAN I DO THIS? Is is smart? etc. B) How much room will I need for the wide bends? as the cables cant just be bent 90 degrees etc. as in will the stick out See Pic- I guess I got the same issue with the steering cable too?
