Couple of places recommended in this thread on a Rover forum, looks like The Trimming Centre in Lewes would be worth a chat as the nearest to you.

Maybe these guys can help?

I believe that link is for parts for the original, larger Aero-Top 1 with the motor in the back, versus the Aero-Top II or Webasto H400 with the integrated motor/control assembly up front...

But they might have the right cables for your unit...

Another update on possible sources for sunroof parts in case someone is looking in the future and stumbles on this thread.
 
I've bought a replacement skin kit for the Aerotop 1 or British Open Classic here: https://www.ebay.co....C8AAOSwImRYRumn and it came with brand new cables and crimp fittings.
 
I'm not sure how long that ebay listing will remain up, so I'll also list what I think are their business websites based on some research I did off the packaging.

Once I install the replacement skin I'll be certain to post whether it was worth it or not.
