How short is it? You could add an inline fuse holder if the location allows it.

That is what i was thinking of. You may be able to rig something up using the casing of the fuse..

x2 on the fuse idea.. unless its under the carpet..

you can use maybe a reducer or maybe a t block. or you can use some heat shrink and a couple gnarly connectors. you will need to find some monster ratcheting crimpers though. you will want to solder with a torch as well.

you can get plain connectors that are easier to use in terms of insulating it. chances are this type of connector will be in contact with some metal.

I suggest solder and shrink tubing.

You could put a ring terminal on the end of the existing wire and the beginning of the new wire, overlap them, and put a nut/bult through them to keep them together. Kinda ghetto, just get the stinger thing.
