Default Where to ground Hella lights?

I am looking for input on where to ground my Hella driving lights. Can I ground them to their own mounting bolts? My custom mounts and bumper are bed-lined so that probably wouldn't work too well.

I am asking because I have never done car electric and the grounds from the lights seem awfully short.

I just cleaned a spot on my inner fender and screwed one in

I got a good ground using the front swaybar mount bolt. Just sand/grind some of the paint away there. Don't have hella's but did it with my cheap Navigators.
