Howdy!
I'm working on getting all the lights up and running with my rig, and in looking into why the front marker lights weren't working - I found that the positive lead from the bulb to the plug wasn't hooked up at all and the ground lug was also disconnected / broken. I've fixed the connection between the bulb and plug (solder and shrink wrap), but I'm wondering where I can reconnect the ground since the lug was rattling around inside the light compartment.
Here's a shot of inside the light compartment. I'm working on getting all the sand and junk out of there so I can clean things up. Can I put a larger terminal on the ground wire and connect it to the other bolt? I'm assuming this is another grounding area, but I figured I'd ask the experts to be certain.

Or - is there a spot where this should be screwed back into? It looks like it fell out vs rusted off. (sorry for the blurry picture).

Thanks in advance!
