Ford focus mk1 battery T bolt

doxy · 2016-09-11 18:18:41

I over-tightened the battery cable connecting bolt on my Ford Focus and it snapped. I called into a motor factors but they didn't have anything like it. Any suggestions on where I might find one of these short of going to a Ford dealer?

Id just get a new clamp
If you have to tighten it that hard it's probably deformed.

Bolt and a washer might do as a bodge
