do they have a ground wire on them or do they even need to be grounded? if they do need to be grounded scrape some paint off to get a good ground ( just incase ) you dont want arckey sparkey :lol:

the only part grounded to the bracket from what I recall is the radio suppression capacitor the square thingy off the coil.
If you want to be sure I usually run a dedicated ground wire with a ring terminal under the terminal I am connecting to the body. kind of a double ground. (sometimes called overkill).it runs so sweet
