Our batteries never came with a negative battery post cover from the factory.
Free is good.....

You should have asked for a vent cap as well.
Did you have to cut the positive battery cover? I purchased a battery and it had a black cover on the positive terminal and I had to cut it to fit the.negative terminal. The negative cover is the reverse or opposite hand to the positive cover.
