Tym, There should be no need for your aluminum dash to be grounded,
except for radio interference concerns. The wood dash in my car isn't
grounded, and yes, there is a ground wire that grounds each gauge. in
practice, the metal dash probably will be grounded through the mounting
points, and provide a redundant ground for the instruments. This may
make them more accurate than the gauges in my car.

I'm replacing the instruments in my "apart" Mk1A.
Is there a loop that runs from gauge to gauge necessary for grounding.
Also, I'm using an engine-turned aluminum dash instead of wood.
Should this be grounded?
Where can I obtain ATE fastenders for the front signal/direction lights?
Thanks in advance.
