Default Need help with 2 grounds driver rear (Pics)

I am having trouble locating where these two ground wires connect and help would be appreciate. My car is a 92 coupe. Below are the pictures of the grounds:

Ground 1


Ground 2

I'd hook them to a ground! Just kidding. I'm having trouble telling exactly what part of the car the first pic is. The second one looks like it could be one of the antenna grounds.

The first picture is the Drivers side rear where the body meets the bumper fascia. Hope this helps.

Aha! Does the other wire in pic one go to the antenna? If so, hook both of them to to same facia bolt. The wire in pic two should also go to the antenna and then go forward to somewhere on the frame I suppose. Anyhow, this string of grounds should ground things in the rear, the antenna etc.

On my 86, there is a "tortion" bar that goes accross the back, just forward of the fuel tank (2-3"). This is a solid bar. (Not the one mounted onto the rear dif. cover). It is bolted on either side with two bolts, one front and one back. My grounds are mounted on the back bolts.
Hope that helps.
