Heater Wires: a simple question!

[jjbunn]

So I am putting everything back under the dash in my '71 TR6. I'm just about ready to attach the wood, so it's all going well.

One puzzlement: the ground wire that emerges from the heater box attaches where? I've looked around for a spade tab nearby that would provide a convenient earth, but I don't see one.

This is normally something I would have noted when removing the box, but the car came to me with this wire dangling free.

Can someone tell me where the wire attaches to ground?

Thanks!

Normally that has an eyelet terminal on it and it attaches to one of the forward bolts that hold the steering column in place.
Mine was on the same one as the clamp that holds the heater hose in it's mid span.

Any good ground will do,but as Norton says it has a large ring terminal on it.

Thanks ... both my original and the replacement heater motors have female spade sockets on the end of the earth wire. I guess I'll just connect it somewhere locally suitable.
