Negative ground cable doesnt reach universal terminal..

My 04 EVO8 stock terminals cracked in half so i went and bought universal terminals, cut the old ones back and the wire isnt long enough to reattach. Cant seem to find anything from Mitsubishi
can anyone point me in the right direction?
THanks in advance

U got pics? Maybe just enxtend the wire by solder a nes section of the same gauge wires to it. And make sure u use heat shrink to prevent rust.

the ground just goes to the body. buy yourself some nice, fat 4g wire and a terminal. bolt that bad boy to the car and you are good to go.

My Negative side cracked last weekend, i did this exact thing went out and bought a universal and some 4g, and tapped into the body existing hole and split the wire back to battery. Works perfect. Now only if i would have just used that as an excuse to reroute battery to trunk
