  • Patent number: 6599137
    Abstract: A combined electrical ground terminal and wire harness trough attachment assembly for a vehicle. In one embodiment, the assembly includes a wire harness trough for routing a wire harness, the trough having a vehicle attachment tab, the tab having a tab hole and an anti-rotation slot formed therein. The assembly also includes a ground wire having an eyelet terminal including an anti-rotation tab. The eyelet terminal is adapted to align with the tab hole so that the ground wire and the attachment tab can be connected to a vehicle ground point by a connector, and the anti-rotation tab cooperates with the anti-rotation slot to minimize eyelet terminal rotation.
