I'm replacing the battery but the positive terminal needs a screw connector fitting. I called the dealer but they don't have any (part number 561549 for what it's worth...). Does anybody know where I can get one in a hurry? It looks like it's a ring that pushes onto the +ve battery terminal and then the screw connector screws onto it.

Did you not keep the ring off the old battery?

It's hard to get off an old battery, but if you still have it, you can drill the lead pillar off it and re-use.
