Default Power cable from amp too small for battery terminal

Hi, i recently installed a new sub/amp in my 99 SS and when i went to hook up my amp to the battery the ring terminal from the power cable was too small to put over our stock bolt so i went to autozone and got one of those extenders that you hook up the accesory on the rear of the bolt and now that has lost its hold as the bolt on the autozone one is too small. Do you guys have any recommendations as to what to buy or what to do? Thanks in advance

Can you drill it out to make it larger? That's what I did.

drill out the hole in the ring terminal to the right size or find one that fits and swap it out.
