When I got my 01 civic , the positive battery terminal was so corroded that I had to cut the end of the cable off and put another terminal on.

This left the cable to where it has just and I mean just barely fits over the top post and that is with a great struggle.

I want to make disconnecting it for cleaning/other reasons not such an aggravating experience.

Is there such thing as splicing a battery cable to extend it some without having to replace the whole positive cable with a new one? I would have a very very hard time doing so, where as working from just leaning over it would be much better for me.

Thanks,

Doc
