I'm trying to direct-wire my radar detector in my XC90 by routing the wire around the dash to the left-side fuse panel. From there I'm routing to the seconday fuse panel under the steering column since all the 12 volt outlet fuses are in this area. My problem has been determing where to run the ground wire. I'm new to the Volvo scene and am used to easily finding a grounding point on my American and Toyota cars. Thanks for any advice.

There are a few screws behind the side fuse panel cover that work nicely. Radar detectors use such little power that any ground will do fine.
