Default Battery terminal bolt, nut and plate replacement?

Anyone know of a good online store, autozone or even home depot that sells nuts, bolts, and plate to keep the battery in place. OEM has a bit of rusting that can use replacement.

OEM parts seem a it pricey for run of the mill parts.

Thanks

you can get a good quality stainless nut and bolt at any fastener shop, just a normal metric nut and bolt, and might need a couple stainless washers , likely a 6mm sizing , but take the oem one with you to match it up size wise.

I'd just strip off that shitty rubbery plastic whatever coating it is, sand it, and paint it with a proper paint and/or get it powder coated.

I know for sure you can get the hooks from an auto parts store, and they typically come with the hardware necessary as well.

I just got my tie down for less than $5 off aliexpress yesterday. Took a solid 5 weeks to arrive, but seems great for the price. Multiple color options. I previously lost a nut, so ill have to get one from the hardware store. https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/bw9gDzO0

Awesome. I like the yellow. How much for shipping? Might get x2 at that price.

That price is with shipping lol. Its like $2.20 for the item and $2.50 for shipping. I cant speak for the longevity, but I wouldnt hesitate buying another after receiving it in person.

Does it fit perfectly. Says it's for acura. I'll probably buy x 2 for future use.

It might be slightly longer than stock, but fits fine. The pic is on my s2000 and has one post attached. The post fit through the other side fine, but i just dont have a nut yet. You can search for slightly different styles on there. It's a no brainer for the price IMO
