stripped bolt

so i was taking off my grounding kit because it didn't make any difference and was a pain to deal with everytime i got under the hood. anyway, I was on the last grounding point, the passengerside headlight ground, and the bolthead snapped off. The groundpoint is hanging by A thread of the bolt. It's gettin too dark to find another 10mm groundpoint so i just taped it down with ducttape for the time being. headlights come on fine. just wondering if it's a potential danger.

should I not drive at night tonight? could it be my excuse for not being D-driver? hehe

No danger, but your duct tape connerction will not last long. Time to get another bolt...does not have to be 10mm, though. Whatever fits.
