It sounds like you did great to get it all repaired, and a reasonable price for everything you had done.
 
If it looks sketchy I would just lop it off and crimp on a new one.
Any stereo or battery shop should be able to do exactly what you need.

There's a current sensor on the 12V battery. Lopping it off might be a really bad idea.
 
Supposedly, disconnecting the current sensor just leaves the 12 volt battery charge rate at about 14.3 volts. That is one of the not-really-cures for the bad accessory battery charging algorithm on older Leafs.
 
Hmm so the current sensor is built into the pos terminal?
The leaf is so low maintenance I haven't had to do anything with the 12v battery yet.

If I have any charging issues I will try disabling the current sensor
