MG MGA - Transmission Rebuild

I am reassembling my mga transmission and during disassembly I had to cut some retaining wires(3) from the shifting mechanism. What type/guage wire do I need to replace the wire with?

.030 stainless wire is what I have used for 30 years.

If you have a small airport using airport transfers tonbridge near you that does aircraft repair. They might be willing to give you the small amount you need. Just do not over twist the wire when installing.
