Where do i find the hose for the wires and cables to go in,the ends for the engine and boat? do they make the ends or an old johnson?
 
you can get those kits, which seem like kind of a ripoff, some corrugated pipe and plastic fittings for a bunch of money like this:

I'd think at the least youd want the fancy billet bezels like these guys:

or for the do it yourselfer, some shop vac hose and pipe fittings and the dress fittings for engine compartment hoses can look cool, for a lot less, like yellowfiero88 did here:

I didnt want quite that fancy and was on a tight budget so went in between with the shop vac hose and some of the hose ends i found at an autoparts store, not a great pic, but can see it here:

Brings back a LOT of memories. My boat had that interior for a damned long time and we had a lot of fun when it looked like that,
