I have done 2 boats over the years, one for me, and another for a friend of mine in Crowley. I used the Seastar system and I shopped online for the cheapest price. Ebay would be a good place to start, ours were bought from some place in Florida. It really wasn't that bad of a job and the 2nd one only took me about 2 hours.

Tip: get a hacksaw and cut your old cable just coming out of the boat before it turns going to the motor. Duct tape your hoses to that cut end and when you pull your old cable out from the steering column, it will pull in your new hoses at the same time. Your old assembly may take a hammer and a punch to get out, but be careful - that housing is aluminum.
