Get the quality ends that are crimped on or soldered on. I solder these on, heat the end with a torch, melt solder in end, fill half way full, then insert wire into molten solder. Wear gloves and hold end with a vise grip. I also use large heat shrink tubing to seal connection. Install the felt washers on the post and spray the terminal with the thick red protective coating, this will outlast the cheap factory connections.
