The best that I can do for tonight at 01:15 in the morning is use a flashlight to highlight the place where the ground connector is.

Here is a picture of where it is located. The flashlight beam is highlighting the area where the connector is located:

wow Bill....what a guy...the ground junction connectors are behind the plastic molding right where Bill's flashlight is pointing. You have to remove the doorsill molding strip to get to it.

I was looking for this ground point today but I wasn't sure how much disassembly was required. It would appear that the doorsill plastic piece is held in place with clips, do you just pull up on it to remove it? Any tool required, or just brute force?

Yep. Just lift up on the seam near the rear of the front piece and gently pull up there are 3 metal clips that fit into the body. After it unclips, just pull it back and lift up.
