Question about Grounding the Coils

for those that are installing grounding kits, custom or otherwise, are you just grounding the coil plate or are you tapping each coil ground wire?

If you actually want to ground the coils themselves, each needs to be tapped and taken to battery (-) post. The mounting plate is simply a mounting plate (hence the name: mounting plate)
