I used the back seat hinge bolt. When you fold down the seats lift the lining and you will see what i mean.

yeap, just dont be like some and MAKE sure its crimped good and the bolt is tight!!!!!

somebody didnt do that and casue a fire in their back seat becasue the ground went bouncing and when it bounces it makes sparks.

also dont drill into the metal below your backseats. Your gas tank is directly below

i dont even bother with crimp ons anymore, i use a reusable set screw type. maybe once in a while i do and i use a hammer to crimp it on so i know it aint goin anywhere.

I use the hinge bolt also. i sanded the paint off mine tho.

I also bolted my ground to the bolt on the back seat belts. It took an hour to scrape the paint off good but now I have a perfect ground that I run both my amp and neon lights off of. If you have an extra hour, this ground is located perfectly for almost all hookups except anything on the front of the car. Be sure you get every bit of paint scraped off though or the ground wont be good.

Looks like the seat hinge bolt is the popular choice, I will check that out this weekend. Thanks to all for the replies.

Take out the back seats, you'll have 4 bolts that are awsome to ground at, also there are the seat belt anchors... just make sure those are TIGHT agen... lol also remove the paint... :thumbsup:
oh and at the top of the trunk opening there are some more that you can ground at they anchor the locks for the seats...
