Hiya

Personally when I installed my split charge system I ran my Earth lead over to the main battery post

However there is another Earth point as u look down by the air filter, just found it easier running the positive and earth wires within a conduit over to the main battery

Take no notice of the extra conduit on the ABS pipes

Hope that helps

Ran my earth on mine to the equivalent earth post for battery on LH drive vehicles, on the RH inner wing.
Its level with the brake master cylinder .

there is an earth stud on the inner guard to the left of the battery box if you look down there you'll see it, easy to reach and get a spanner onto.
