Positive Battery Cable

How do i got about replacing my positive battery cable. The lead end on my passenger side battery seems to be pretty blackened and i cant tighten the positive end onto the positive post. Do i have to buy a whole new cable from the dealership or do i have to solder all the wires together again and put a new crimp end on it?

Thanks in advance

I'd get an OEM cable and replace the bad one. Dealer might be the source unless somebody knows of another place.
