Default Top Post Battery Terminals for 1/0 Wire

Thinking about putting a top post battery in the car.
Battery will be mounted behind the right rear tire.
I have a 1/0 gauge welding cable, ran to the fuse boxes, that I mounted on the HVAC delete plate inside the car.
I can't seem to find a top post terminal that is big enought to accept the 1/0 cable.
Anyone know of any.
Thanks

Go to parts store and buy a universal top post clamp unscrew the 7/16th bolts on top slip it in and tighten up or a stereo shop will have some fancy ones

Universal terminals are to small for the 1/0 wire.
Stereo shop might have some.

Yeah, any marine store should have them. I think I've even seen them at AutoZone.
