Default Dodge Ram Promaster battery part

Had to remove / replace my Dodge Ram Promaster engine battery recently for my 2016 Roadtrek Zion, and broke a small red plastic piece apparently designed to help hold a fuse box to the top of the battery over the positive terminal. This Youtube video displays the part in question at about 1:45 in:



Can anyone suggest where I might find a replacement part? (I have questioned several area Dodge parts depts to no avail.)

You say Promaster, but the video is Promaster City. Two completely different animals. Which do you have?

You're right, it is a Promaster City in the video. However, the part in question is identical...that small red plastic piece with 2 screws holding fuse box to top of battery.

Default Pro master Battery Part

I just changed battery in the same vehicle type and went to the Ram dealer to find out what was important. Having done that, I also broke the red plastic piece. I was told that it is just used to keep that large connector stable and from moving around while underway. So I put the red piece in, adjusted it to do what it was supposed to by tightening it in the original configuration and have gone about business. I am not planning on getting a new plastic piece, although I may 3D print one in my classroom if I get the time.
