Default New Battery connection

my car wouldent start this morning and i discovered my batter connection was loose..but it was as tight as it can go and its still loose..so i went to canadian tire and bought i new connector but i cant put it on..the old connector wont come off and i'm worried about getting shocked

is there any shop or sumthing that does this kind of stuff..i dont wanna pay too much..or is there some kind of trick to do this..its reletively simple..but i think i'm lacking to proper tools or somthing.

If you disconnect the battery, what is going to shock you?

Just cut off the old terminal, strip back some insulation, and crimp on the new one. Add some solder if you're the paranoid type.
