Default O2 Sensor cable won't reach on my new header

So I went from the stock header on my 94 CX (with the cat attached to the header itself) to a 4-1 header and cat from Kragen. Install and fit was fine, the sensor now sits farther back then original and as such the original cable won't reach. Anyone ever has this problem? No way cali smog is going to let me pass.

Make sure you use soldered connections and shrink wrap so id doesn't corrode.
