braze-on shifters retorfit?

I am retro fitting my old frame with a new set of shifters and derailleurs. I am putting 105 shifters/brakes on it, but need to put a cable housing stop where the braze-on shifters previously were... What is the part that I need to go onto the praze-ons?

thanks!

They are called "cable stops" for braze ons. There are shimano and campy versions that I know of.

Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

The Shimano and Campy cable stops are the same thing and either will work. Shimano includes them with their brifter sets and Campy offers them as an optional accessory (Most newer frames have these stops built in so the accessory stops aren't needed.)

If they weren't included with your brifter set, almost any bike shop will have a drawer full of extras.
