    So its another post on batteries but i can't seem to find an answer to this.

    My battery terminal has corroded and i need to replace it..

    I was thinking of ordering the OEM part and changing it out but there are two cables that are attached to the terminal.. I have no idea how to even cut/hack away at this since this is uncharted territory.

    Any help would be nice??!

    Trace them back and run new cables. Good time to upgrade cable size too while you're in there.

    So does anybody know if i can buy OEM terminals and connect it to my car without a special tool? I read elsewhere that i may require a special tool?
