    that kind you cut off the old terminal, then strip back the insulation on the wire then clamp it on the new terminal. easy enough.

    only problem with that style is it leave the wire bare and exposed to air, then it will tarnish like copper does, its called dry wire. it will then travel down the wire and kill it slowly over time.

    or buy one that you solder on, or just buy a new cable altogether.


    heres how to solder one on, its easy.
