If your batt. is an ac delco like minewas then when you lift the red cap in it you will see a seperate bolt sticking up from the metal part that attaches to the batt. post. Use a 10mm nut and a deep 10mm socket and attach your power wire there , as for the ground, no longer than 2 feet, so it all depends on where your amp is , if its up by the back seats, use one of the bolts that hold in the seats. If its in the back of the trunk then try one of the bolts that hold the base to he antena up, or one of the bolts that hold the trunk latch on, becareful doing that though, those latches are tricky, they don't want to go back on all the time.
Whatever you do make sure to sand or scrap the paint away from the ground area, place a fuse 6" away from the batt. and don't ground it to any of the bolts that hold the taillights in
