Starter cable replacement?

Can anyone point me to a thread on replacing the starter cable, I am having hot start issues at the moment I replaced the starter a couple of years ago so making the assumption it's time to change the cable, I have read threads on a carrera S but not a Turbo.

Any wisdom appreciated

The ground cable on the driver side is usually the one that goes bad, bust so does the power distribution block if it never had the TSB done.

I ended up changing the starter motor which fixed the problem
