you could do that, but why not go to the junk yard and cut off what you need. also, you might be able to buy a new aftermarket connector from some place like napa or bumper to bumper.

the aftermarket ones use a normal spade terminal instead of the goofy one the factor used/uses, so thats another option.

you could also solder a length of wire onto it and use an insulated male and female spade terminal set, this way you don't have to hunt for a connector and keep the ability to unplug it for whatever reason.
