ps - is it dodgy to secure an earth strap with a self tapping screw?
Iknow you're supposed to use a bolt, but it's *really* difficult to get a bolt * nut affixed to a chassis rail.

i'd advise against this - at some inopportune moment the screw will come loose and you'll suffer the common 'crap earth' problem - this may happen:
-with a large audeince
-while doing something that needs a lot of electrical power
-a long way from all your tools
-while in the middle of a heavy downpour at nitetime

find any nearby bolt holding something down, remove all paint and non-conductive shit, re-attach with earth strap.
