The cables can be reversed pretty easily.
The connector attached to the wire slides over a flat spring in the housing to latch securely. You just need to depress the spring from the front of the housing and lightly pull out the cable. Reinsert just by pushing it back into the housing.
Avoid scratching the top of the connector, so the contact surface isn't degraded any.

You can see the flat springs in the cutaway below and the little lip at the tip of the connector that fits over the end of the flat spring to hold it securely in place.
