Alright, attaching it to the chassis seemed to do the trick. Thanks for the help guys!

I figured that, just making sure

I believe I did ground it to sheet metal in the back...I will definitely have to fix that as well. Do you think that could've caused the headlights dimming in the first place?

I haven't removed any wires. My engine ground is on some strut that was holding part of the alternator bracket. I can post a pic of it tomorrow. But someone suggested running the battery and engine ground to the actual chassis and not the body, so I need to fix that tomorrow.

Aren't FSD Audio amps supposed to be pretty nice though? It's a Class D but I'm not sure about the integrity of the amp.

Alright so I put the engine ground wire in a different place and made sure to clean of the surface. It's still having a little trouble holding voltage. Should I try putting the two chassis grounds in different places because right now the battery and engine ground are in the same bolt on the...

Alright, I'll check them as soon as I can and make sure the surface they are on is clean. Is it alright for the engine ground and battery ground to go to the same spot on the chassis?

It's XS power, could it possibly just be a bad ground connection? No, I'm not running HID
