dont ground to that, either ground to one of the bolts where your jack is, or use the bolts that hold that metal bracket in thats behind the rear seat

i just drilled a hole in the ceiling by the speaker, and bolted a screw and a nut. It matched the way i want my amps to locate. it's nice, dude...

Got 2 amps hooked up to the rear strut bolt. No noise whatsoever (80 amps max draw power). Don't forget to sand the surface.

rear strut bolt will rust and corrode. at least it did on my car.

My new ground point is underneath the rear seats where the seat belts bolt into the chassis. Sand/strip paint off and you should be set.
