I ran an earth from the -ve battery terminal to the drivers door pillar where the big braid to the door is secured. It fixed issues with fluctuation of instrument gauges and the radio turning off when lights were switched on. A flexible 10mm stranded cable would do it, nice and chunky to keep the resistance down.

Would this alaso help with my issues of dim lights? or do they run off a different earth?

my issue was when hazard lights on, my plate lights flashes with hazard light (when engine is off), however when engine started, the whole problem goes away, however still sees minor flickering but not so visible. kinda feel like earth problem
