I've used a bike stainless steel brake cable from a local cycle store. Very cheap, about 2 pounds all in plus 1 pound for a second inner in case first breaks.
Never needed 2nd as first is still OK.
just make sure you use a swivel at both ends and it has no chafing points.
Teflon lined outer sheaths are also available but cost about 5 pounds.
