You can buy a replacement bolt at any auto parts store or Wal Mart.

Or like these from Summit Racing...
Dorman Battery Side Terminal Bolts 60307

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rn...Fcdehgod860GKg

A lot of the ones you get at the average auto parts store are shorter and fit below the level of the rubber. They work, but make attaching jumper cables very difficult if necessary.


Pop out the old bolts and insert the new ones. It may take some pressure to get it inside the rubber cover, but it's not difficult.

Good luck... GUSTO
