Quick question...probably stupid though

Ok so I'm pretty sure I'm right but I just want to make sure. I can use this pinout on the factory harness for a ground:

A12
BK/WH
1051
Signal Ground

I'm guessing I can because I wired it up earlier tonight and it turned on but not sure if it's the best ground. Can anyone help me out?

Oh yeah and another quick question. The unit I bought was a Jensen VM9511TS. And yes I know Jensen is crap but it had all the features I want and it gives me time to save up for a Pioneer AVIC-N3. Ok well here is the link to the product on their site http://www.audiovox.com/webapp/wcs/s...5216&langId=-1.

I am wondering how I hook up the parking break wire so I dont have to have the parking break on to view DVD's. And NO I'm not driving while watching them lol. I think I just have to ground it correct?
