Here is a view from under. I can't find the pics I did from above.

Your not kidding about hard to get to. Is this photo from when you had your engine or transmission pulled? I wonder if it might be better to cut the wire, butt splice to extend, or just crimp new ends on and ground it to an easier location.

This view is from under the car when I rebuilt my ZF6.
I suppose you could cut the braided wire and extend.
You could end up getting what are called "ground loops" though.
I have not heard of anyone doing it.

With the plenum removed, and especially the coil packs, th grounds are not that hard to access. I should have done the rag trick to the drainhole. I only drilled mine out to 3/8" and flushed it with acetone.
