Default 95 battery cable

theterminal for my 95 is very corroded. today i had to jiggle it around before it would even turn over. where can i find a replacement harness for the possitive side of the battery? i cant replace the terminal because the cable wil have to be cut. and if i cut it, it will not reach the battery.
any idea on cost? its too late to call around right now thats why i ask... unless someone had one for sale, that would be cool.
thanks

Go to a parts store. I don't see why you would want a used battery cable. When you install the new one, put some protectant on it (you can get that at any parts store too). That should help the long term corrosion issues. Get a wire brush or terminal cleaner for the battery too.

mix baking soda and water together, dip the connector in the mixture and wipe off residue, then pour some mixture on terminal, wipe off residue and wala! brand new.
