S13 hatch, Sr20 swap

After driving on the highway or if i hit a big bump in my car the starter cable will slide off the connector and it wont start after, gotta get out and put it back on. I searched on here and google and couldnt come up with an answere... Does anyone have a sufficient way to prevent it from coming off or know exactly what to buy? connector etc... f Thanks!

Cut off the OEM connector and put on a .25" female connector.

Like so:

zip tie the wire closer

put a "kink" in the blade to give it better resistance.

worked for 9+ Yrs on my sr's
