does thier kit consist of scissors ?
I know that there are 3 different sizes for the last 8 years of the bus. if you are going to cut it anyway there are some simple fixes you can do. The P.O. of my bus had cut the wire, made a loop for the right length, and used a metal band (copper) to "clamp" them together.

Thats all you have to do, shouldn't need the extra barrel nut.
