• The shimano cables go a certain way- struggling to recall now but I was recently reading through the tech docs for the 105 shifters and the nose-and-shield bits are keyed for a reason, have a scan through the manual.

  • I looked up some more information about it, and found out that the noses and shields are used for bike where the cables run under- or over the toptube, and keep the dirt out. I have been able to fit those without the splines.
