Need to replace throttle cables. 115hp Honda outboard

[Go.Fish]

Looking for a tad bit of advice here.
One of the throttle cables is in rough shape and needs replacing. Might as well do both the throttle and shift cable. It’s either going to be a driveway job or in the water at the marina

115hp Honda

Honda, Teleflex, Pro-X, UFlex, Morse, MachZero ? In need of 19 footers
The Teleflex TFXtreme look nice. Or OEM... Or...?

So far I can find $35 USD each + shipping. Local would be preferred but can’t find anything local online right now

Thanks in advance

Teleflex has worked well for us. The standard cables work fine but I prefer the blue heavy duty grade. If your going to all that trouble why not use the best quality available. $50 or $60 a cable if memory serves me. Most marine stores can order them for you. We've bought through harbour Chandler, and our local auto parts store bumper to bumper. Your just buying blank cables based on the length you need. Keeps the ends from your cables.

Thanks Brian. I will check with Bumper to bumper tomorrow, there’s one a block away from the house. Never would’ve thought of that!
Steveston has the blue (TFXtreme) listed for 72 or the red (medium grade) for 62. Add an extra 15 if it’s seastar branded.

Pretty sure that TFXtreme rings a bell. I'd spend the extra and get the premium product
