That's the same gauge I have. I don't have the same body style car, but on mine it was the large center wire. You don't have to cut the wire, though. Just strip a small section in the center and solder it to that. Also, before you solder you should test the wire to see when it has power. If it has power when you pull the headlights on, but doesn't have power when the headlights are off then it's the right one.

if you have the ability to solder, solder. It creates a much better connection. The clamp thing will work too though if you don't have the ability to solder

yeah i got a soldering gun so what i just splice the wire and hold it to see if its the right one then just melt the two together?

But soldering doesn't melt the wires together. What you do is melt solder onto where the wires connect to create the bond. There's a bunch of guides online if you've never done it.
Also, when you're done soldering, remember to wrap the connection with electrical tape or use one of those tubes.
Furthermore, if you need help finding a good place to ground just let me know.

OR
There's a small metal bar that intersects with the large one. You can try to squeeze the wire in between the two metal rods and solder it there. It won't be as secure but it'll be a lot less work. The choice is yours.

ok i put it on the metal bar solider it no problem i cut a slice on the wires coating and none of them light up the damn things i hooked it up the a regular 12v battery and it worked so i no its not broken
