Go to a battery supplier or bike shop, they would have hundreds laying round, all new batteries have a new set provided, so they always have the old ones, usully just chucked in a drum somewheres.

Does your battery use the nut and a screw. Nut fits inside the terminal, then screwed from the top? (sounds wrong, sorry) You should be able to match them up at a hardware store like caniscream mentioned.

Hey if you got to your local shop and just ask the service writer, or service manager if they have a spare one from a junk battery in their pile of junk batteries, you'll be able to get one for free!
