Fuse wire crimping

Ok. Super noob electrical question.

I have my piggy back fuse which will be used for a dashcam. I intend on wiring a cig socket onto this to then power the dashcam or anytjing else.

The fuse has a wire coming from it with some form of crimp. Do i simply put the bare power cable from the cig socket in and crimp.or should i put a ferrule on the cable and then insert that?

Proper upgrade to FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - tailgate paint issues, fuel gauge rewire, transfer box failure at 36k miles, clutch at 60k
Reconditioned diff at 70k ish
Sold at 84k and now on a DS. Terribly unreliable.
