Is it a Metro? Is it an R100?

just wondering, i've found an earth point currently used from the main interior loom that sits behind the dash above where my glove-box is.

is it safe to use this as an earth point for my amp aswell? as it's difficult gettin the earth lead through the grommit behind the glove-box.

so yeh, can i use this earth point if it's already attatched to something else?

TIA

i think it's a constant live as it sparked when i went to re-attatch the bolt and the earth-lead but is this goin to be a problem? or dangerous?

That earth wire is for the radio. Its got a large eye on it.

Yes ok to use as an earth bonding point.
