blue cable housing
I am trying to come up with a close match to the dark blue cable housing on my 85 Bianchi, but everything available seems to be more of a royal blue. I have attached a picture of what I bought new and the tired cable on the bike. I am guessing a match would require NOS cable housing, but maybe someone here knows a source. Thanks in advance. I am also looking for blue bar tape to match.

There's a BMX guy on eBay who sells this in 25 foot rolls if the Bianchi housing doesn't work out.

Thanks for the suggestions. Funny I checked google last week and came up empty handed, funny how things just appear when you need them sometimes.
