Ahh, ok. You went with the pre-assembled kit. That already contains two diodes so you're set with what ya ordered.
Regarding the ground wire (the old gray or green depending on which you decide to use on the diode), I suppose you could lengthen the cable and find an unpainted part of the frame to ground to (there's one near the thermostat sensor housing I know), but that seems excessive to me. I'd suggest simply following the OP and crimping a small ring connector on the end and putting it on the same bolt as the other ground. I couldn't find a ring connector small enough, so I just stripped ~1" of the new grounding wire, made a loop, soldered it (that way it wouldn't come undone) and put it on the existing grounding bolt.
