I have 1 where is goes behind the UIM, one from the top of the motor to behind the MAP sensor, another from the PS/AC rack to the frame by the strut tower, and another one that goes from my Termostat Housing to my passenger side frame. Probably on of the most important thing when adding grounds it to sand down the contect suface to bare metal. I know i probably have more then needed but it cant hurt.

I actually put the same as you in the same spot were yours broke off and I added another one to the battery terminal to chassis. when I put it on the chassis I sanded it down to bare metal, put the ground and the cover it up with RTV. I did notice a little bit of difference from the head lights.
