i used pond pump pipe very cheap & strong various diameters because its ribbed it can be difficult to thread so the best way is to stretch it out no bends push a rod through with a threading rope i use a conduit threader made for the job.
you can just see it under the paddles going onto the console
I used flexible electrical conduit. It is split along the length so you don't have to thread the cables through it. I used a cable tie every 16" or so to keep it all together.
i use spiral wrap as this can also be wrapped onto the tube top grab handles ,i use 9 inch long lengths with 12 inch gaps between as it is advisable to let the control cables to have a bit off free play,can get this online or ebay i have used the 19mm size as it is thicker and stronger. also no need to pull cables through a pipe.wouldnt use tie wraps as i have seen some bad cuts with sharp cut off tails.cheers

I should add that I do cut off the tails flush with the locking block so that no sharp piece sticks out. I will look into those spiral wrap things as well, seems like a good solution.
I use a hot knife on tie wraps flat to the block.spiral wrap is ok but if your treading on it there's a possibility of it parting not fully protecting cables etc the stuff I use is spirally wrapped which makes it really strong.
You have enough issues just getting it in a car with size of engine you are thinking off, adding steering is going to add more kit and increase your set up time.
