Anyone know where the ground point(s) are in the cabin for the dash?

My 2018 went off the deep end last night, dash went full brightness, all gauges went to zero, HVAC system went offline, no turn signals and every service this message scrolled across (airbag, side scan, suspension, etc). Ran fine and you could change drive modes, came and went a few more times over the next five miles then everything came back up and it's been OK since. Thinking its a grounding issue as they usually star ground everything, rather than dig around I figured I'll ask first.

Answered my own question, and I'll post it in case anyone is looking for the same answer in a search. There are two each on the driver and passenger side behind the lower kick panel, and one on the drivers side inner fender in the engine compartment. I pulled the bolts and sanded down to bare metal and replaced, we'll see I guess, so far so good.
