Roof-top light grounding points?
 
Alrighty, I bought some cheap "off-road" lights from Advance auto the other day, and I'm kind of stuck on where to ground them. I have the actual Switch grounded to my parking brake mount, but the lights themselves have grounds running out of the back of the casing. I've got some stereo wiring left over from my Z28 that I could attach/ run to a better grounding point. I'd just rather not do that, if possible.

The lights in question are "Blazer Baja off road lights" or some such. I bought them to experiment with roof lights, mounted onto the luggage rack. I've got the lights pulling power from the fuse box, if that's important in any way.

The screws holding down the luggage rack is where my friend grounded his old lights. just sand it down around the hole then you can wrap the wire around the screw or get a ring terminal for it and just screw you luggage rack back down.
