Great.
And if you haven't done the install yet, and are re-using the inner wire, please cut the new housing a quarter inch shorter than the old one.
This way, the previously-clamped (and damaged to a degree) spot on the inner wire will be pulled past the binder bolt washer and not be subject to normal cyclic tension in use that might likely lead to a fractured strand.
