don't you hate that?  that happened to me at first with my power supply, but the cable ended up stretching a bit. 

I am not sure of any uk providers, but this is what you need:

you can go through the dif venders and see if you can find one for the uk.

Here's what you need:

1x Roll of duct tape
1x Swiss Army MacGyver incredi-knife
1x Degree in electronics
4x 5" long cables
1x Soldering iron
1x telephone call
1x trip to hospital
1x cardiac arrest
3x 2nd degree burns

No, but seriously. I hope you find what you need. Man, must be uber-frustrating!

Man just go ahead and cut and splice in some wire it's really no big deal. Personally I would have done that after about 5 minutes of cursing.

I've done this a couple times with extra wire from a old ps and some boxing tape, you don't really need to solder, but solder is certainly better (won't come appart. Getto sure but if it works I'm happy.
