"T" Bolt on Battery Part Number Help??

SchnellM3 · 11-24-2012, 10:07 PM

I was doing some work on the E46 the other day changing the pads and putting a new battery in. In the process of putting the new one in one of the bolts that clamps the terminals together to lock them down sheared off in the middle. I went to the auto parts store of not expecting them to have one but to get at least a bolt to hold me over. The problem is that the connection is now loose since its just held on by the nuts and bolts I put on, rather than it clamping on.

Just wondering if anyone can hook me up with a part number for this? I looked and spoke to the dealer and they're telling me I can only get this if I purchase a whole new terminal cable and the negative cable runs around $40 bucks, which is a lot cheaper than the $200 dollar positive lol

Here is the part in question....

They are correct, you can't get that piece separately. I may have one laying around, I can check tomorrow if you haven't ordered a cable yet.
