Any part of the metal frame of the dash would be a good ground. __________________ http://photos.thedieselstop.com/show...0/ppuser/28329 93 F250 7.3 IDI S/C XLT 4X4 E40D 3.55LS, Captains chairs, Tutone Mocha, Leer 48" Hiboy cap, FR & RR hitches, full DeeZee running boards.

If you're putting the gauges on the a-pillar, remove the driver side kick panel and you'll see a green ground screw beside the hood release. __________________ 1988 F-250 regular cab 2wd, 7.3 IDI, C-6 (SOLD!!) 1994 F-250 XL regular cab 2wd, 7.3 non-turbo, E4OD Installed Bronco overhead console, Eddie Bauer dash trim and power door locks/windows, bucket seats, A-pillar gauges, Banks Trans-Command. ... finally getting close to installing Banks Sidewinder
