Strangely enough, I have in my possession, the very last radio dial restringing kit from Radio Shack available in my area... I bought it on sale several years ago when they were closing them out... And the radio I bought it for didn't need it afterall! So I keep it in stock, waiting for that day I'll need it. However, I have found suitable replacement string at the local Jo-Ann Fabrics! I use the thick thread you use with an awl for hand stitching leather or canvas...
