    I just snapped my detachable cable to my Sony XB-1000 in my car door. What should I do?

    I have the screw piece of course but what should i do to repair since the break was in the middle of the cable?   I can't even seem to find the original cable anywhere to replace.  Is there someone to repair that you'd recommend?

    XB700 first impressions....I think I need the 1000?
