I just did this when I was doing the clutch replacement.
The key is to remove the throttle body, its held on by 3 bolts and it has some ancilary hose connections that have to be removed. Its pretty easy from above, but you will have to sit/lay in the engine compartment. Then its easy to get your arm underneath the intake runners and get access to the battery cable connection post on the starter.
there is another large cable (alternator?) that connects on the same connection post as the battery and a separate small blade connector for the starter solenoid. Be sure you know where that blade connector goes as there are two possible connection points.
The cable is expensive as heck. The dealer wants over $120, eeuro wants over $50, I believe. I made one with some bulk 2 guage cable and some soldered connectors. About $15 total.
