I have the same exact problem. You must have the ability to move the power seats forward and back on the rails to remove the seats.
My seat (passenger) has both cables twisted apart. There is a tool in your toolbox that is used to move the seats without power to the motors. It is long, fairly flexible and has a square end in it. Use that for your adjustments.
Another thing I found INFINITELY helpful was the removal of the upper seat from the lower seat base. It make alignment much easier. To remove the base from the seat is only four bolts. I also installed my seats in this way. It's much easier to due after you remove the center console. I always hated wrestling the heavy seats into the car and holding them still.
Be sure to check out the motors on the damaged cables. On my back/forward motor the worm screw was bent. It will require a new motor. I advise poking around the junkyards for it.
In the mean time, don't be in a hurry. Adjust the seat all the way aft and let the passengers complain.
