There is no reason that the current has to flow through that long #20
wire to get back to that terminal under the dash. Add a pigtail just
behind the lights and connect to one of the screws that hold the
headlight mounts.

Thanks, I already put in the relay but I didn�t separate the grounds.
What
I ought to do is remove and replace all the connectors, crimp them then
solder the crimp, tin the star terminals and then maybe enclose the
whole
thing in a solid block of silver.  Maybe that would give reliable
grounds in
these beasts!

Sorry got carried away a bit.
