What connecters do i need (jump lead)

I am after some electrical connectors, that can be fitted to the sportscar, in a convienent position with out removing the bonnet, and also my jump leads,

But what are these connectors called ?

Anderson connectors. Will look for some piccies for you

Here you are. Use them on mines. Frome battery to one of these and then from there to a set of crocodile clips . This allows you to jump your motor from another and vice versa. I also have made one from my battery charger so I can plug it in over winter to keep the battery conditioned.

If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

Is this to connect a battery conditioner when the cars not in use?

Anderson connectors appear to be the style i was after, but do they come in pairs, ie male and female ?

It was more so i can jump, or jump another car without taking the bonnet off,

Not in pairs you just buy 2 if you look at the pic they are marked + and - You then take one rotate it 180 degrees and turn it upside down. Then the + and - are aligned again. Solder or crimp the terminals to the wires and slide them in from the back the correct way up and a metal tang locks them in place ( can be removed if you want if you get them wrong as well) We use them at work all the time as tailift connectors between artics and trailers.
