Question Asking for help - XJ8 Chair motor harness

Greetings all,
I'm more active on the X-type area because that what I daily drive. I've had an XJ8 I have been working on to sell here for a while but the last thing I'm stuck on is the chair motor controls harness. It has one frayed cut wire at the base of the harness (so no ability to reconnect) and I've been waiting for another XJ to pop up at junk yard for 3 months to no luck. If anyone has a pullapart, junk XJ, or knows where one is and can grab it off for me I'd insanely appreciate it. It's just the harness and like 2 inches of the wire behind the driver seat controls. I'll pay for shipping and whatever I just can't seem to find it anywhere online either.

Can't find any pics of back of controller right now however it's where the harness goes into the seat controller, the wires are frayed right at base of harness, so I'd need a few inches of wire coming from new harness in order to cut mine and rewire one in. Really just reaching on a limb right now for this as I don't want to buy an entire seat harness and rewire everything and spend $100. Thanks for any help, ask for any clarification if needed.

started a new job and have been working near 50 hours a week so haven't had the time to get on here. I have a photo for you now however!

fraying at base of harness

Since it's at the base of the harness I don't see an easy way to rewire it with the current one. IF you had an extra harness with wires protruding about 1-2 inches out I could easily rewire it! Being 6'2 it's tough as hell to get in when the steering wheel controls don't work and neither do the seats! THANK YOU for any at all help/
