You may not know, but Iceshark was the screen name for Dan Wray, and member who made these cables in his spare time to support the 944 community. He, quite tragically, passed a while ago ...must be a good year now...These were never produced commercially.
The best way to try to replicate them is to see if you can get pictures from someone that has them. You will need some thick cables (I think Dan used welding cable) and then locate the connectors that will fit around the cable ends and still bolt to the ground points. You will have to pull your cables to gauge the length needed.
I know that he had a positive cable that ran from the battery terminal to the starter solenoid and a supplemental positive that went to the fuse box. He had a ground cable that went from the battery to the engine. There was a supplemental ground that mounted to the front of the engine and ran to a ground point near the driver side headlight. This cable was really part of the headlight cable set but was popular with just the battery cables as well.
I'll look to see if I still have the pics from my cables.

PM Member "Robby" he has Dan's leftover inventory and can make just a few sets. I've been trying to source the fuses that Dan used for Robby but have had no luck so far. I know for sure he can get you the negative side kit, but the positive kits are pretty much NLA until some fuses are found that can be used.

That is partialy my plan when/if I can get my hands on a kit. I had a local guy lined up to make new kits for our cars, but he has not been heard from in months, and I am not one to chase someone down unless i have money invested already. I am sure I can find the fuses he needs, just have no time since all the race shops are closed on weekends around here in NASCAR country.
