How to Positive battery terminal replace 05 Acura TL?
Getting a factory terminal is likely not worth it. First make sure the battery cable has enough slack to cut off the terminal, shave back the insulation and use a new terminal. If you don't have enough slack, you'll need to replace the entire cable. If you have enough, remove the battery to save yourself from accidentally grounding/shorting our the battery. Remove the negative battery cable, then remove the positive. Remove the battery. Cut the battery cable where the terminal is. Strip about an inch of insulation. For my 2003 TL, I had to use the truck size terminal from Autozone as the normal one would not fit the 2 battery cables. Truck size = $3.50, car size = $2.99, not a big difference. Make sure the cable is free of corrosion. If there is any of the powder blue dust, clean it all out with a wire brush. Get the battery cable into the new terminal and tighten. Use electrical tape to cover any excess uncovered battery cable. Pop the battery back in, install the positive terminal then the negative terminal.

How do you replace battery on a 2003 Saab 9 3?
I am assuming this is not a 2003 Saab 93 convertible. I don't have any specific details about that particular model. All other 2003 Saab 93s take a BCI group size 48[1] battery. This battery is available (in the USA) almost anywhere that sells car batteries, even if they don't list the Saab 93 in their application guide. A BCI group 47 battery, which is smaller, can also be used if a group 48 battery is not available. To replace the battery: 1. remove the battery cover (two plastic screw clips) 2. make sure the key is out of the ignition switch, 3. disconnect the negative terminal with a wrench 4. disconnect the positive terminal with a wrench 5. use a socket and an extension to remove the battery hold-down on the edge of the battery 6. remove the battery from the tray To install the battery: 1. put the battery in the tray 2. use a socket and an extension to tighten the hold-down on the edge of the battery (if you use a group 47 battery you will need to install the hold-down bolt in a different hole than it was in with the original group 48 size battery). 3. connect the positive terminal with a wrench. (It may be necessary to trim the edge of the battery tray with a file due to the fact that many group 48/47 batteries are a little shorter than the original battery. If the terminal hits the edge of the battery tray this is why) 4. connect the negative terminal with a wrench. 5. replace the battery cover. [1]In the USA car battery sizes are specified as group sizes. In Europe DIN sizes are used. I have no idea what the equivalent DIN sizes for the Saab battery are, but in Europe I suspect there will be no problem finding on that fits.
