Default Wiring off road lights question
If I'm mounting lights to windshield light mounting brackets, can I attach the ground wire right to the bracket?

Possible but I wouldn't. Most likely won't work though cause of poor grounding from paint and powder coating. Just run it to battery with your hot lead
