What are those things called?

Good morning everyone,
I am wondering: where the rudder cable exits the fuselage, there is a cover you can buy, I guess it is for stream line/aesthetics. What is that cover called? I would like to put them on my plane before I rivet in the back plate.
thanks,
Brandon

Don't rivet them on

Don't rivet them on until you have run your rudder cables. The cable ends are too large to fit through the openings..... guess how I found that out.
 
got 'em

I ran out to Avery's at lunch and grabbed a pair, now I haven't even made it home with them to test fit/size/or anything...but was wondering can they be mounted on the inside, or will they only fit on the outside of the skin

Brandon:
I got mine from Avery Tools ([email protected] or www.averytools.com) part #10728, priced at $12.00, described as "rudder cable fairing sets for RVs" in their 2009 catalogue. I bought all of my RV building tools from Avery. They're a family business and a great company to deal with.
