Claim 8:
9. A shapeable conduit comprising:
a circumferentially flexible wall extendable along a longitudinal axis to define a lumen configured to receive one or more cables, the circumferentially flexible wall comprising:
at least two longitudinally extendable manually deformable axial stiffening members; and,
a releasable coupling mechanism having at least two mating engagement members configured such that the at least two engagement members: (a) releasably engage in an enclosed state such that the wall circumscribes the lumen, and (b) are tangentially separable into an open state such that the one or more cables can be radially transferred between an interior and an exterior of the lumen; and

a cable coupling mechanism configured to releasably couple a first end of the circumferentially flexible wall to a flexible member disposed in the lumen and exiting the lumen at the first end.
