Battery trouble

does anyone know if the battery cables from a 2003 SD PS will work on a 2000? The part numbers are different, but they look the same.
My inline terminal block is cracked and does not have a good connection, so my truck will not start in the cold. I am having a hard time buying one from a dealer at nearly $200..................
Thanks in advance for your help...........

Welcome to FTE bike_guy123 If the part numbers are different, there must be something different about it. Have you tried getting one from a bone yard? Good luck!

When I had the same problem, i picked up a 6 inch battery "pigtail" from Kragen for 6 bucks.

Worked great.
