Is there a grounding screw in the in-cabin fuse box?

Looking to install something and I need to ground one of the wires. Is there a specific spot for this in the fuse box or do I have to drill and mount something to the frame of the vehicle?

Well at lest you were being helpful. Much funnier when somebody try's to pick a fight on a post where the other person hasn't even been on for 2 or 3 years.
