Winch wiring

Just wondering if anyone has an idea what these wires are called? We had the battery stolen on our brand new Forest River 228BHSE and need to replace the large black and red wires in the black tubing because they were cut. These wires attach on the winch and the battery and are used to raise/lower the pop up. I need to look for a replacement part and I've already talked to the manufacturer who sent me the wrong part so I need to know the name (they also dont know...) Also if anyone has a picture of the battery I would love to see what it looked like before they stole it. Thanks!

Are you close enough to a dealer that you could go there and look at the exact or similar trailer to see the exact parts you need ?

Unfortunately none of the dealers in our area carry pop up trailers.

After I upload, I close that box and clip the "Attachment" icon and it shows the pic I uploaded and I click on that and it attaches to the post.

Try to upload the pics again. This site's a little funny. Once you upload the picture you then have to attach it to the post. So it's two steps instead of one.

Sounds like you're talking about the battery cables with crimped ends on them. You can go to a local auto parts store and they'll have a variety of them different sizes and lengths. It would probably help if you would take what's left of the old one with you, and give them an approximate length.
