Check it out. This allows the kawi steering cable to reach my Wamilton trim raider nozzle. This is when you install a Yam144 pump in a kawi. Here is the crap epoxy prototype for fitment and testing:

Mocking up the test part.

Now here is the one I made today, main body of it is Grade 2 Titanium. Its sooo light it feels like its made of plastic. I think it will be pretty damn strong too, the cable is now the weakest point. Went with M6x1.00 316 stainless, for the couple between the ball joint and main body to stiffen it up when using the trim under load.
