Alternator to Battery Cable Q's...

I want to upgrade the cable going from the alternator to the battery to a 4 guage. I noticed though how the factory cable is a single unit.

Is there an aftermarket source for a factory type cable that simply has a 4 guage cable to the alternator instead of the factory guage? Even though I plan on looming it like the factory did, I like the colors to be factory colors as well.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Come on, nobody has ever wanted to upgrade their cable but keep the factory look?

Nobody knows?

Wire size seems like overkill since the generator output averages around 25-45 amps. You can try looking at a Belden wire catalogue but since manufacturers like GM have thier wire made to thier specifications including color coding and guage you will be most likely out of luck.
