Thank you for the advice, that's the reason I joined this forum. So the small dabs of solder I've put onto the original wiring (plus the new insulation) -- surely this must weigh more than the weight of the replacement wire from Howard? Happy to be proven wrong I'm just trying to get my head around it... Would altering the tracking weight (with a gauge of course) to compensate for the extra weight not be enough to avert premature damage to my records?

I share you pain in not being able to find replacement cable though. I have managed to find short lengths of appropriate tonearm wire on eBay at ~£5.50 a length, but the lengths were too short (around 30cm) and they don't supply one of the colours.

I'm not sure I have a spare mouse I'd be willing to cannibalise! I'll have a look through my collection of computer cables though if the above really isn't possible.
