The question is, can I just cut the wires back, get some butt connectors and wire and connect it all up? And then the obvious of insulating it and sleeving it back up.
I've done this with other shit, JW if this can be held true with a engine wiring harness. I can't afford 850$ from Mazda for a new one.

Should be fine. Personally I would solder them then go to home depot & ask for silicone splicing tape(it's high temp) Use that to wrap it. It might be near the duct tape near heating stuff. Last time I had a problem like that I also used a Kevlar spark plug boot shield from O'Reilly Auto Parts . I just cut the metal ring out to make the sleeve expandable.
