Good ground by floor console fuse block?

I need to know a good place to make a ground connection by the floor console fuse panel. I tried to search but found nothing. I am wireing up a xm roadyxt and have taped into fuse #21 for power but I am unsure were to ground it. Any help would be appreciated and pictures would be better.
Thanks,
Jack

The plastic cover clips right onto a metal bracket. Push the carpet down and you will see the nut on the bracket. That is grounded to the body.

High temp of 11 degrees today, I hope you at least ran the engine so you had heat. I was out in it today for a while. Good luck on the XM install, I just did a Sirius hook up.

I did warm the car up. It helped some but when your working on that fuse block you have to have the door open and it was sooo cold. All done though and all went well. Now I'll just stay in for the rest of the evening.

x2 - I just put in another power outlet so my GPS could plug in and not tie up the one already in the dash since my GPS is pretty much always plugged in. The subject title caught my eye and saved my time from having to find the ground.
