stupid newb grounding question.
I'm relocating my battery to the back bin and have a question. When I relocate the grounding point to somewhere in the back will that ground my whole car or will I have to do anything else like jumper it to the engine bay?

that will ground the whole car like you need. just make sure you have a good solid, clean tight connection to the body. you may also want to upgrade the engine to body ground too.

what i would do is clean a spot inside of the cargo box, down to bare metal and put a good like 8mm or 10mm bolt through it and tighten it up. after its all snuged up i would spray on some of the stuff that stops batteries from corroding. so you dont get that white **** on your bare metal.

There should already be a seatbelt mounting point back there for the optional rear seats. I'd just use that for the grounding point. That way you have a good solid connection, and don't have to drill new holes. Just grind the paint off of it first like Mort suggested.
