Stainless steel bumpers

opelgtboy70 · 10-26-2008

I was wondering for those here that have put the stainless steel bumpers on your GT. What did you guys do with the ground wire that attached to each rear bumper? The SS bumpers dont have the tab for the ground wire. Do you need it because the bumper are tightened to the body of the car?

yes, the SS bumpers do not have the tab.
You need an adaptor cable (appr 4" long), one end with a tab which fits to the original ground wire connector, the other end with an eye.
You have to mount the end with eye between license plate lamp housing and the SS bumper (do not forget to put one of the screws for the housing attachment through the eye )
