Almost everything is grounded to 2 clip towers that are located above the
fuse panel and screwed onto the sidewall. GoWesty has these towers
available, but I mostly find the spade clips have corroded to nothing and
need to be replace with FLAPS clips. Just take out the fuse box and let it
drop and you get access to those  grounding towers.
