I guess 5mm or 4mm should be fine. You can buy shrink tube locally and it is cheap so nothing much to worry about. It costs Rs.6 per metre here.

Re: help needed on heat shrink tube
Most of the locally available heatshrink tubes have a 2:1 ratio. Which means a 6mm tube will shrink down to almost 3mm. I'm not sure if other shrink ratios are available here. But they're very cheap if you buy it in bulk. I bought 10 metres of 5mm shrink tubing for around Rs.50 from SP Road in Bangalore. I say around Rs.50 cause I bought other cables as well and was given discount on pretty much everything.
