Is there enough room in there to just splice wires?

I would run your wires through the door, cut one wire at a time, splice the wire (solder and heat shrink it) pull the other end of the original wire through the boot and then splice it on the inside of the cab behind your kick panel.

Sweet. Can't beat a cheap (but good) repair.
