Fuse Grounding Screw, please help! 2005 MCS

Hi,

I just got my mini and I am very excited. Of course, after washing, one of the first projects is to connect the radar detector.

I did it very easily in my previous car, ran the wire down the fuse box, connected one to a fuse and the other to the grounding/earth screw that was right there! However, with my beloved mini, I don't see any grounding screws next to the fuse box. I probably spent two hours trying to find any random screw, but nothing worked... please help. I have one of those kits that I bought from ebay: wire to connect to fuse + grounding

I would really appreciate if somebody could post a picture or something showing where I could ground the wire in 2005 MCS.

Thanks so much,
Mike
