Doode, run it down under the trunk matting there, and behind the left hand cover. There is a PERFECT spot for it near your antenna. Matter of fact, the Antenna is grounded there.

He's not talking about the tail light access.Look in the cubby hole area on the left side,just foward of the tail light access.You'll see a black plastic piece that looks like a vent.Pop that off.It's either that or take that hole side of carpet off and get at it that way.
Also ,a good spot to ground the amp is in the spare tire well.

How are you going to go under all the carpet and bolt the ground cable in place,without removing any thing?? You are talking about the little nook/cubby hole area on the left side where the ant mounts,right?

personally.. as that looks to be a removable sub mount.. I would add a connector in there. Once you "hide" the wire.. under the carpet, bring it up in the spare tire well.. if you need to pull the mount out, disconnect the wire, lift everything out, and place the wire under the cover for the spare wheel. Removing the carpeted floor is easy.. it just lifts out. The rest of the panals unscrew.. there are PLENTY of good places to gound it once you pull a panal.
