pull your seats out and ground it where the seat bolts down. Make a good connection by grinding down the paint around the area before you screw the bolt down. Take your time the amp will function the best when it has a good grouns.

yup theres plenty of places in the rear cargo area. just pull up the carpet and look around. grind a little paint away and you're in business. I also used the old cd changer spot.

1. use really beefy ground connectors. i'll explain why in #2.
2. if you've pulled out your monsoon amp, take one of the screws holding the monsoon amp in it's place, and use that instead of the screw found in the triangular piece. there are 2 grounds on the triangular piece already. move the one that won't fit on the monsoon amp screw to the bolt directly beside it. use the monsoon screw and tighten the hell out of those grounds. do make sure to sand the paint down as well. the stock screw found in that triangular piece will strip and will not get tight enough for a good ground connection. using the monsoon screw will widen the hole, but leave a very tight connection.
