Pre-Made Anderson Battery Cables

My team bought some of the new batteries that are approved for use this year (2007), and we need to attach some of the Anderson quick-connectors that come with 6 AWG wire, as supplied in the KOP. We are also getting an additional charger, so we will need the same Anderson quick-connector, but with smaller wire.

From what I have read so far, it seems that teams need to spec out the connectors themselves, order their own wires, and assemble them themselves. There is also some hardware required to get the ends of the wires securely attached to the battery terminals.

Is this really the case? Doesn't IFI or some other F.I.R.S.T associated distributor have these cables already pre-made? Or, does anybody have all of the parts spec'd out?

Thanks!
