Default Fuse Box Ground??

I am upgrading to the newer blade type fuse block on my 1982 Urq and I cant see where a ground connects to the bottom of the new style fuse box itself.I see some letters on the bottom but there is no refrencec of a Ground in my Factory manual.
Can anyone help me out?

There is no specific ground lug. The grounds all connect at the A pillar.

Default Fusebox Swap Information..

<center><img src="http://www.humanspeakers.com/audi/images/fusebox.gif"></center><p>
As far as I can tell, all the Audi 'under hood' fuseboxes (5000,4000,URQ) are basically the same internally (as above).

Not to say that they are USED the same way, but that they are the same. With the aid of the attached picture, you can probably adapt any of your requirements easily enough.

Also, the fuse box has some internal ground connectiosn (for relays and such), but I think they are done with wiring to the body common ground point from terminal 31 on the fusebox.

(Not by a direct connection from the fusebox to the body itself.)<ul><li><a href="http://www.humanspeakers.com/audi/fusebox.htm">Fusebox Swap Info</a></li></ul>
