Earth :/

[shadowbane]

Ok so trying to refit all the light and wires and wires and more wires for lights :-/ as you can imagine lots of fun :-/

So starting with the front side/indicators....there are two wires out of these....where is the Earth suposed to be? i figured if i earth them from one of the mounting screws they work fine (no indicators yet(we'll come to that  :P)) so is that where they should be earthed from?

Yes ,earthed through the light body/mounts............red and green for side and indicators

Whats the best way to earth the car? one of those strips to the floor? my lights are all over the sodding place with Earths...i am sure the car already is earthed but is it worth doing it with one of these strip things?

LOL I think youre thinking of something completely different lol

Earthin the car, battery earth strap to body, earth cable from engine to chassis (bolt on engine mount)
