Grind down an ordinary bolt (longer) so the head fits as per the original. Original Member Pie n Pea Club.

Or buy a battery terminal clamp which has an 8mm stud. You can attach about 4 35mm2 cables to it.

However as it sticks upwards insulate the underneath of the lid or use a rubber cover

Something like this



Cost about £3 each
