If I remember correctly, that's what Mo and I did. We connected the ground to the post with the brown wire. We just pried it, stuck the wire in and re-crimped I think. We didn't have to mod the harness.

However, his HID kit was different (from Angelibright) and cost waaay more. I have the same kit as this but 6000K and I needed the code-cancelling thing.

Great write-up ... definitely put effort into it! Looks great!
