Post battery terminals
Replacing the battery is easy enough, but I can't seem to replace the positive battery terminal, as none at auto parts stores fit since the cable is so short it has to cross the top of the battery, but the post is lower than the top of the battery. Anyone know where to get a new battery terminal? I also seem to have a conductivity problem on the terminals as they seem to be aluminum and have an oxide coating that is not conducting well. (i.e. A new battery doesn't start the car and there is not enough voltage at the jumping terminals.)

I need a new terminal. When I was bolting it back on, it broke in two.

No, I can't even find any pictures online of anything that looks similar to what is there. I may have to get an extension cable.
