If you break the T bolt (the bolt that is used to clamp the negative battery cable to the battery post) on your negative battery terminal... You've probably discovered that BMW does not sell the bolt. They'll be happy to sell you a new negative battery assembly for $260 though.
VW uses the same bolt (for the Jetta I think). You can get a new T-Bolt for $9. The VW T-Bolt part number is 6X0-915-138.
