MG MGB Technical - Colour coded cables

Thanks to an extremely helpful section on Paul Hunt's excellent website, I'm intending to introduce hazard warning lights to my MK1 B roadster (you know it makes sense!). I've ordered the necessary hardware and although a relatively minor modification to wiring is required, l would like to perform the latter using the introduction of the correct mixed colour cables. I've had a scout around the usual parts suppliers without success. Any suggestions re suppliers would be appreciated.
Thanks

Autosparks have all you need and at the proper quality level. I use them every time I need electrical connectors and cable. Buy the proper crimping tools for your needs as it will pay back rapidly in terms of reliable connections.

Thanks Richard, plenty to go at now. I agree regarding the correct tools, a loose connection can be annoying at best and down right dangerous at worst.
