Attaching Ground Leads from Trailer Tail Light

Question:

There is a ground wire coming from each trailer light. I know where to put the ground wire coming from the connector, but not sure where to hook up the ground wires coming from each tail light. Thanks for your help.

No Problem! Each ground wire would simply ground to the trailer frame. You can use a self tapping screw, and make sure that the area you are attaching the wire to is not corroded. What you are doing is using the trailer frame itself to carry the ground from the light fixture up to the grounding point on the trailer tongue.
