Default Opps I made a mistake with the Ground Wires - Thank you Kenny & Ron (( 07-01-22 ))

So when I was doing the wiring I just had a brain fart and forgot that if I flip the switch on the battery shut off and then
went and tried to start the car it would still go through all of the small grounds on the top of the battery.

Thank you Kenny and Ron for explaining this to me and hopefully I got it right this time.

I hope this is the last time that I will be taking this headlight bucket out. FYI in order to put the upper and lower valance
on the headlight bucket has to be removed so it will not be going back on till I am ready to install the upper and lower valance.



All the wires have been exposed and I can now visually see my mistake.



I really love the DSE lights however how much better can the new Holley Lights actually be.





Everything that was on the top post terminal will now be moved to this remote ground stud.



Off to Ace Hardware for more nuts, washers and bolts.



I also used nylock nut so I don't have to worry about the bolts coming loose.



Have I mentioned how much I love drilling into pretty paint.





You can see that I hid the ground lug behind the battery so it could be easily serviced if necessary.



I made a temporary ground wire that runs back to the lug where all of the wires moved to.



I put some TechFlex wrap over the wires and called it a night.
