Default whats the ground under the headliner?

Pulled my headliner to re-cover and noticed a ground wire there that has been cut. What's it go to? Everything seems to work in my car just fine so I'm curious now.

It's for the rear defogger grid and the third brake light.

bumping this up since my rear defogger and third brake light don't work. Where does this wire ground to?! I pulled my headliner down a little and just saw the wire sitting there, not connected to anything. Any input guys?

It should be pretty freakin' easy to figure out where it goes. It's a GROUND - stick it to some metal!
