I use 22 gauge hookup wire from Radio Daze.

I had purchased the stranded wire previously, but as the original is solid, I will buy solid next time.

I used to use color-coded heat shrink tubing and replace the insulation on each wire by unsoldering one end of a wire, removing all of the insulation (usually just pinching its length with needle nose pliers would do the trick), slipping on the tubing cut to a proper length, shrinking the tubing, moving on to the next wire. I have found, however, that it seems to take less time to just replace the D**n wires.
