I just figured I could attach the clamp to the existing cable=E2=80=A6cut of=
f the existing (incorrect) clamp and attach the correct one (crimp? solder?)=
. British Wiring sells individual clamps separately so I thought this was po=
ssible. Am I incorrect?

You're right.  You should be able to solder your wire on to a new terminal
clamp.  That must have been what the factory did.  Lots of heat, lots of
solder.
