Cable Housing Guides??

I was wondering if anyone knows of a source for cable housing guides that are made for screw on applications? I am getting ready to go with a Rohloff hub for my wife's touring bike and the frame has threaded bosses in the right locations. I thought I saw a source last Summer but I cannot recall it.
Thanks!!

There are many variations of screw/bolt on cable guides. Perhaps a bit more data would help us from mentioning the many types that are not what you're looking for.

Casing or inner cable. Turning corners or continuing straight. What is the guide attaching to? BB, lever boss, cable hanger, bottle cage boss, other? Andy

They would be for housed cables on a Rohloff shifter. They are routed down the underside of the downtube. If I can find a supplier I would be able to pick what I need.
Thanks!
