All,

Dave is correct, but the point where the negative lead is connected should be near the battery, not in the cabin where there may be unexpected resistances because of adjoining body panels.

If you are diligent about bonding the various panels together, then you can connect the radio negative almost anywhere, but still near the battery is the best choice to assure a low resistance connection.

The rig -ve lead to be safe, should go to the vehicle frame to prevent
such disaster, NOT directly to the battery -ve terminal.
