I'd have to look, but if you're looking for battery grounds, why not just trace the cables?

Seriously I'm not above going out RIGHT NOW and snapping a pic and sending it to you. I'm half lit and bored Cleaning the batt terminals and posts is a good start... a tiny bit of corrosion makes a BIG difference.
