Thought about a bucket; just didn't haven't one available I was willing to put used coolant in.

I have a number of grounding wires that I plan to relocate.

Like the grommets by the LH/RH coilover perch? What kind of sealant issues? I was hoping to run the new loom on those at least partially into the battery/brake compartment. Wonder if some high temp fabric gasket I have would work.
