Anywhere. The whole body/frame of the car is grounded.

Basicaly, u need a ground for the fog lights themselves n the other ground just under the battery is for ur switch. Installed some fogs on mine n the ground wire coming out from switch only make it light up when fogs are on. If u dont ground that wire, ur switch will still work but it'll not light up (well that was the case for mines).
