Default Best Place for Ground

I am installing my amps and would like to know where is best place to find ground in engine compartment. Also, do I need to drill hole through engine compartment to supply power to my amps?

Your ground wire should be a short as possible... So unless you're planning on installing your amps in the engine compartment you'll need a better spot somewhere in the car itself. The frame is always a good spot, I'm sure others can tell you where they hooked up theirs to. :cheers:
