Can someone help me with a 12V and ground points under the center console?

I'm trying to install another 12v plug under my center console for my iPod charger for a cleaner installation, but I don't know which wire to tap into or what bolts to use as a ground. I know it may be simple, but seeing as these cars have such delicate systems, I want to be sure not to screw anything up.

Thanks,

Ian

best spot is at the fuse box, there is a take off point for power, just insert a crimp connector. there is a ground bolt down there too, use a spade connector.

Could you please be more specific? Also, are the bolts holding down the shifter surround sufficient ground points?
