Go for some wire about the same size (or bigger) than the one that's supplied and attached to the starter. Shouldn't be too far wrong.

The link I sent him last night for Maplins should be ok... it was rated at 30A

High Current Wire (50/0·25) : Equipment Wire : Maplin

unfortunately I dont have anything in my workshop of high enough rating at the moment... I can always add some 12AWG silicon sleeved wire to my next order though

thats ok rob im gonna pop in to maplins this week for a look at what they've got and if they got any suitable i will just get it for him along with some 30a rated croc clips looked on the site an they are cheap enough lol

Interestingly the 2.5mm diameter conductor core should actually be good for 55A so this would be fine for the starter The starter would need to be near stalled to get up to that current draw.
