Default ground locations in c6

I have a 0 gauge ground wire and I'm looking for an alternate ground. My amps are mounted in the back and my ground wire is only 3 feet. I usually use the ground by the passenger seat belt but is there another one closer to the back that would work as well? How hard is it to get to? I could always buy a longer wire but I figured I would ask first. Thanks.

There is one on the hump behind the passenger seat. Where the cargo area drops down behind the seats. The upper most spot on the wall behind the seat. At least on a ZO6 there is one there.

You could drill a small hole in the rear wall and attach a ground directly to the rear bumper.

All are equal as long as you have good contact and don't accidentally go thru a smaller wire.

For bumper, you can drill a new hole or use oem bolt that's about even with inner passenger brake light.
