Grounding points

I am installing a dash cam in a 2017 F 250 XLT 6.2.
Using Q-259 drawing for customer access wiring points. On page 7 it references grounding at locations G105 & G129.
Anyone know where these locations are?
Upfitter and pass thru wires I found, but the grounds I have not.

Thanks, Mike

I used the passenger kick panel area. There’s a module to “left” of the fuse box (as you look at it from the passenger foot well) that has an exposed bolt. I removed the nut, put two washers, stuck my ground loop between the washers , and put the bolt back on top of it and secured it. I can’t image it going anywhere and it’s secured nicely between the washers for a good contact.

If you found the upfitters and pass through you will find this.

How did you get the plastic cover/panel off there? I can remove the nice access cover easily enough (it just pulls away) but is the main plastic kick panel screwed in somewhere? I can't find a screw and I don't want to break anything just pulling it away.

Pull straight up on the door sill to remove it first - and then pull the kick panel straight toward the rear of the vehicle. There are 3 clips holding it in place.
