S5 n/a wireing ripped by steering linkage

two days ago i was driving and when i was turning the car it felt like it got stuck, well yesterday it did the same and i forced it to turn and it turns out that the wireing somehow got wrapped around the steering linkage
how could i fix this, is there a place i could buy this piece with longer wires, it connects the lights and i think the alternator as well
