Default Cable kit recommendations

Any recommendations on cable kits? I'm looking to put some 14" apes on my bike, but it seems that most kits are pretty hit or miss. Where should I be looking?

www.burlybrand.com I have used these guys several times and I wouldn't use anything else. All the wires are color coded with the right connectors on the ends. Cables are an exact fit. Everything you need in one kit.

I used magnum cables on my bar upgrade, but I researched and bought them individually. They have packages available. I am beyond happy with their quality. check em out https://www.magnumshielding.com/

Yep, used the same ones, actually got them from a dealer cheaper than the manufacturer, that was a while ago for my 03. I think it was Axiom if I recall, and very helpful with lengths required for bar swap.
