i think you may find, the outside wiring, is a sheath, acts like an earth to stop shittysignal, like engine noise, and the single wire is actually the one that picks up signal, its just a guess thou.......

that is correct
the braided section gets soldered to the u shaped bracket
the centre wires get soldered to the centre oin
