Or you can just buy a replacement or any Webber pizo BBQ igniter.

The kit comes with wiring which is nothing special and it works fine. Its
not as insulated as the westy pizo wire and can spark to ground easier.

Why not use regular spark plug wire which you can buy at most auto stores
off a roll  thats all the westy stuff is but its tiny.
