Joel The Dakota Digital converter that's used to change the transmission signal from the Tremec so it works with the OEM speedometer has 2 leads for power, one fused hot and one ground. The way it was wired up to power initially was they put a crimp-on eyelet on the ground wire and had that between the negative battery cable and the battery. The positive was slightly different, it had a crimp on eyelet on the positive wire but they replaced the bolt on the positive battery cable with one that has a stud bolt on it and hooked it up there. I moved the ground wire to a bolt on the firewall and moved the positive wire to that power stud that's between the battery and the firewall. I'm thinking of eventually putting a switched relay on the positive wire but that's down the road. I'm trying to attach a picture of the positive battery connector (after removal of that wire) if it works to show what I'm talking about. I assume there is a ground strap from the firewall to the frame already as there are those grounds to the inside of the kick panel areas inside the cab already, but looking at the ground straps are another one of those things on the list to do down the road. hope that makes sense.
