I’ve been trying to hook up my light bars but the harness goes straight to the battery and the bolts have plastic covers that make it so it won’t fit. Does anyone know of a battery with extra posts for aftermarket stuff?

When I first read your title, I though you wanted more posts about batteries not more posts on your battery. ;-)

Could you mount a remote bus-bar to which you can connect your battery?

That seems to be what I’d need but I’m not seeing a way to connect it

I bought a battery with both side and top mounts. Used the side as intended and ran all accessories from the top.

Just Google 'dual post battery' and you will have all the options you could ever need to choose from.
