Replacing the control cables can really test your patience (especially doing it by yourself) but I found by crimping an old longer cable and outer onto to the one to be replaced worked a lot better than just taping the bits together.
If you are careful you can then just reuse the old cable for the rest. The cable kit I got from Scoots RS came with 2 extra long cables so if you are changing / ordering cables make sure you oeder an extra long one for this job.
The crimp was just a standard electrical wiring joiner and you get a heap of crimps and connectors with a crimping tool from super cheap for $10.00 – well worth it for the cables and a no brainer when replacing the entire wiring loom.
