alright here is my problem

when i did my stereo install i somehow lost the T shaped bolt and nut for the positive battery terminal clamp down. i went to the stealership today and there was some dumb ass lookin chick behind the counter who looked like she smoked her breakfast (hippy) and she couldn't help me and said if she called mazda they would tell her to order a full engine harness :flip: i didn't even ask how much that would be, and as it is a type of bolt i have never seen before i know i can't get it at the local hardware/nappa store. any of you guys have suggustions before i go to another dealership or try my look with nappa, though with those guys if i don't have a piece to look at i am pretty much sol....

so ummm yeah help a brotha out...

any small nut/bolt combo should work, just means ya need 2 tools to install it.

But the parts stores (Napa, Autozone, etc) sell replacement battery connectors, leads, etc...so it's a good bet they might just have what ya need.

yeah i thought of using my fancy shmancy terminals for the neg side and putin those two wires on that and using its T-bolt for the positive side until i can clean up that wiring mess to use a terminal over there...
