Does someone have a line on terminal post covers for side post
batteries.

I've adapted top post covers and have used electrical tape in the
past. There must be a better way.

GM Pick-Ups come with one on the positive. Maybe there is a GM part number.

I stole the red one off my 99 GrandAm.

Thank you for the leads.

I'm off to the dealer.

Just a follow up to confirm that I found what I wanted and to post
information for those who follow.

12160209 (Black)

Cap for terminal bolt (mates with cover 12160210 above)
12010050 (Red)



Thanks again to adamsocb and UstaB-GS549.

Thanks for posting pictures of cover and part numbers. I'm going to get a few spares for friends. Tech is always complaining about un-covered battery posts.

Just a follow up to mention that the cable portion above (left side of
the image) is not required on cars with molded ends on the existing cables.
I don't know how recently cables were supplied with the molded ends, but
my '89 has them.

All that is required in this case is the cap. It snaps into place and
you are good to go.

I just bought a bag of 5 (12010050) last week. I think it was about $15 with sales tax. You have to buy the whole bag unless your dealer wants to stock them.

They make wonderful stocking stuffers at Christmas time!

A dealer here who primarily services the tradesmen truck market
had them in stock and was happy to sell singles.

Still, I bet you won't have any trouble unloading your extras at
the next event. Might even manage to cover the handling charges!!
