[QUOTE="blackgeltabs, post: 46823, member: 541881"] Chris im sorry but your wrong. You see in a perfect world that might just possibly be true. But there things like rust and corrosion that can get in the way. You see all ground has to go back to the battery anyways, your car sitts on 4 rubber tires, thats why they say cars are safe in lightning storms. The way circuit city did it is great becasue you have the battery in the trunk. A couple of my automotive teachers have asked "why dont you run a ground wire straight to the battery for all of your amp thingies, instead of grounding them to the rusted a$$ body" Iv been wanting to try this and poke around with the volt meter just to see where it would get me. Running the ground wire to the battery would truly be completeting the circuit in electrical theory. [/QUOTE]
