I just got a new battery with opposite poles. My power cable isnt long enough to reach now. I havent even took the loom off to see what is under it, so has anyone ever extended theirs before or have put a new one on. It would be helpful info for me since I dont feel like just attacking it like always.

warranty with free battery = good deal!

Could you rotate the battery 180 degrees? That way each lead would have to go just a couple inches further...

Otherwise, you can just go to the auto parts store and get a longer battery cable. All the cables on the shelf are usually the same aside from their length, so look up the correct one for your car and pick one a little longer.
