Go to your LBS and ask them some from their workshop supply. They'll have a boxes of each inner and shouldn't charge you more than £10 for both (closer to £5 actually)

Something like this:

As a little tip, get some Rock n Roll cable magic (comes in a tiny bottle), put a bit in the outer and then blow it down with yours or someone else's mouth. Then fit the new inners.

Rock n Roll Cable Magic works a treat. I know someone who has serviced mountain bikes for a decade now and he swears it's the best thing in the workshop to get slick shifting back, I got some and now use it every time I service or build a bike (unless the outers are brand new with a very good jet-lubing process, cheap outers that say they are I will still do it to).

I'd recommend changing the housings, you can't see what the insides are like.
