I have seen a couple of Lancairs where both sets of rudder cables are run all of the way and attached to the rudder, I think this is what I would do.

The main problem you would encounter is how to swage the co-pilots side rudder cables to the existing cables. They are attached back in the tailcone. Short of cutting a large hole in the tail section or having a personal Mini-Me to somehow crawl back there and operate the swaging tool I can't imagine how this would be done. In addition there is a standoff with fairleads that has to be glassed in 3-4 inches aft of  where the cables join.  These are the two greatest hurdles. I'm sure there are others.
