In case of emergency you can use a bicycle brake cable. I have done it before. I used a couble of washers on one end and a barrel nut connector for cable on the other end!

Cable
VW part number; 868721555A Was discontinued without replacement on Jul 1, 2011
28 Euro; https://www.mecatechnic.com/en-GB/_C177400.htm
£22 http://www.allcarpartsfast.co.uk/vw-audi-seat-skoda/vw-audi-seat-skoda-868721555a-cable/
$30 https://autopartmaster.com/en/?action=catalog_part&cat=vw&cod=868721555a&price_type=retail

Literally just pasted the part number into google and clicked the top few results. Seem to remember someone after one in the past year and it came out at about £20 or so.
