Default Z06 positive battery lead broken
Hi, did this happened to anyone? And how should I go about replacing it? Doesn't looks like there is a lot of slack to install an aftermarket one. Thank you

You can pick up these gold plated battery terminals at Autozone and cut off the old connection and reinstall the new…I’d do both and be done with those crappy OEM connectors !!

if you can fix it with these parts you found, that the absolute best option. dont cut the original ends off and rig it.

I did away with the crappy factory pos/neg lugs.
Replaced with new ones. It’s now a much tighter connection.
