probably not may hold for awhile, why dont you just use your dx cable it will work. just move the nuts around, even move the mount back and only use one bolt even drill another hole in it i have done it without problems at least that will get you by till you get a permanent solution...

they make line ties for if you need to shorten thosee styles of things, when you cut one it slides over the end and a allen bolt gets screwed into the side which makes the new end. Hardware stores have them, I use to use them on my dirt bikes and stuff all the time but can't remember the name of em.

What can work for a very short time is a butt connector. Take off the plastic part and butt connect it back together then solder the butt connector if you want.
