Just like the title says. I did buy some cheapo replacement battery terminal replacements, but the wires seem to be too thick for me to accurately install them. Anyone have any tips for some terminal replacements that would fit (for purchase at a B&M)

I think the 2 bolt that came with the battery terminal is too short, buy a same size but longer bolt ( ACE hardware ) and it should fix your problem.

Do you remember the thread size of the bolt? I can stop by a hardware store after work...
