Hey, I am going to switch the cables my power supply gives me, to nice white cables, the budget for the cables does not matter, it would help me if you could also put the links in there. (From Europe only please!) I also do not know how to install them so if there is a video on how to install em' that would be amazing, thanks!

You just plug them in like anny other cable. You can find corsair braided cables here: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/power-supply-units/psu-accessories

 

press the cable you want and find retailer.

NZXT makes braided cables to.

PS: There's a difference between 8pin mobo cables and a 8pin gpu cable so make sure you get the right one  :)

You can either buy extensions for the cables or sleeve them yourself(but sleeving your non-modular cables is gonna be really hard and void your warranty).

Do you know where I can buy them?

Quick note, OP's PSU is compatible with none of Corsair's cables. He will likely have to go with extensions.

Your only option would be to buy the extensions which take up more room behind your motherboard, or get a custom set for you psu made. I'm sure Pexon could help mate. He is UK based but he ships world wide and his work is awesome, he does the extensions and custom full sets for any make psu, it says Corsair, and Seasonic,  on the website, but just drop him a message and he will sort you out mate. http://pexonpcs.co.uk/, he's on facebook also mate, under the same name.
