Default Question about Control Cables

What brand of control cables are the best or what work better???
Here is my problem, the yamaha outboard and remote control box I bought came with morse control cables, the cables are about 5 feet too short, should I go with morse, tele-flex or stock yamaha cables?????
I priced tele-flex and they are 58 bucks, yamaha control cables are 55 bucks (each).
So does anyone out there have any advice for me???

I think the Morse work fine and are a great replacement for the price. I had a Yamaha 90 HP and my cable broke, we used the lower cost replacement and never saw a problem.
