What type of coils do you have? Mine has 5 coils that you can just replace the wire and the other coil wire is part of the coil. If you have the newer style coil you should be able to go to the auto parts store and get a set of universal wires and cut to length.
That's the easiest way I can think of, other than buying wires from an outboard dealer.

Wires
When I had the carbs rebuilt my wires were arcing to the shop owner cut me a 3 foot piece of bulk wire he had and I reused the parts from the old wires. Note the old wires said high performance marine and they were carbon centered the new ones are stainless centers and there is a big difference in performance...........
