Alot of people tend to ask this question so i just took a picture a minute ago for someone....What you do is drill a screw into the metal piece under the carpet and you got your ground. I hope this help's some of you

Good suggestion.

What about a good location for mounting the fuse under the hood?

I have 4 places already drilled, stripped and greased where I have grounded my amp lol... I move my stuff around a lot. Now, I'm building a new amp rack that's integrated into the sub enclosures. I think I may keep it a while though.

Good spot Modify - I grounded mine underneath the larger seatbelt bolt, but I'm running 4 gauge from my distro block to ground. Was your spot bare metal or did you have to sand paint?
