Question:
Hello, It looks like this kit doesn’t include the self tapping screw? Which one would you recommend purchasing for the ground wire installation into the frame. Cheers, John

Hey John,
The kit does not come with a ground wire screw, but usually you can find a self tapper at any local hardware store. If there is no rush we do carry those screws. I recommend you go with part # 101131802 to use to mount that ground wire.
Are you looking to set up your vehicle to tow a trailer with brakes and need brake controller as well?
