Re: [DML] Welmoed Headlight Grounds

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The headlights/front marker/sidelight on each side of the car have their own 12 gauge ground wire to the rear bulkhead bolt (front turn signals are grounded through the junction behind the central HVAC duct). Unfortunately those wires have an inline connector at the bottom of the windshield washer bottle that can get quite rusty and corroded. Running new contiguous wires to the radiator support bolt would eliminate that inline connector, yet still facilitate body removal (the radiator support bolt has to be removed anyway because the filler neck ground, which does not have an inline connector, is attached there).
