On a side note, I thought for sure I fried the trunk release some how. I was sitting in the car with it running, press the trunk button and nothing, got a bit freaked out, was able to open the trunk by going through the backseat. Checked all the connections, made sure the charger was still working, made sure no smoke or hot wires were present. With the car off it would open, how odd. Then, I did a quick search and found that the car has to be in park. Well, I have a manual and I must have forgotten to pull the parking brake this afternoon. Glad it was just that and no funny wiring issues.

I was wondering about how to drill and screw a ground in there then just a couple hours ago thought about actually looking to see if a screw was already there I could use. Glad to know yours worked out. Going to install tomorrow. Just got mine charged a couple hours ago. Thanks for confirming this option works.
