So I was fiddling with the charging cable for my Nexus 7 in a rental car and the tip of the cable flipped out of my hands and into the mouth of an open can of soda sitting in the center console cupholder. Now its inoperable.

I have other cables but none fit or charge as well as the original. I can't find a source to buy just the cable, and Google says they won't either.

Any ideas?
