            (About 10' in length-copper has gotten pricey!).  Where does
            everyone connect the ground too?  Some Healeys here that are
            not stock had the ground connected to a bolt on the rear
            bumper brackets where it bolts to the frame. Is this
            correct?  Not sure what is correct when stock.  Thanks.<br>
