Got the car nearly back together but can't seem to find where to screw this ground wire to, it's the one off the drivers side o2 sensor, genII ('99). Nothing on the chassis seems close enough... Can anyone take a peek and let me know what I'm missing.

My 99 has a ground wire under one of the AC compressor bolts, but I'm not able to check to verify for you.

that might be it, I definitely didn't put one on any of the compressor bolts.

I can confirm this. I have just overhauled my AC compressor and yes, this ground wire goes on the upper right bolt of the compressor.

Yep, A/C Compressor bolt. That ground might also cause a Check Engine Light for the front o2 sensors.

If I'm not mistaken, that bolt is too long to be removed without removing one of the hoses, in which case, I'd pick one of the other bolts in the vicinity.

I'm already too lazy for that, I just ran a jumper wire to another ground lol.
