While carrying out service on car, I thought a worth while job would be to relocate the Anderson connector to a better location under the bonnet.
Can anyone point me in the direction where I can purchase long lengths of battery terminal cable and what ampere rating I will need.
Alternatively I was thinking of buying a set of second-hand TVR jump leads and just swapping over the connector and replacing clamps with battery terminal.

Most good motor factor places should have suitable cable. I would suggest the '12 volt shop' (use google) they have good prices on things like midi fuses & holders (always good spares to keep!) they also sell cable & connectors etc to make up new leads. Not sure what to rate to but I guess 200A is more than enough for jumping a car
