If you look at the other negative earth thread on this page there are some MASSIVE engine bay pics of Mirium..

That shows a modification without turning the battery round (which some people don't think is a good idea) BUT the parts are slightly more expensive (about £10). HOWEVER is you go to a non ferrous scrap metal dealer they might have some multistrand 10-15mm2 cable that they would let you have a meter of for £1 or so ..

WhenI did ours I bought a 30in long positve battery strap and a 10in long earthing strap. Very easy to do but expensive .. There much better and cheaper ways of doing it.
I did it this way because it looks nice and was simple ..
