Go to Radio Shack and get a ring terminal that fits the screw or bolt you want to use. Also, get some sandpaper to take the paint off your contact point to make sure you have a good connection.

thanks for the info. i know how to ground and everything i was just wanting to know if anyone knows of a good spot so i don't have to drill. the ring terminal that came on the wire is small. i can drill the hole out a little bit but was trying to avoid that
