couple of electrical questions

Im re-wiring some stuff to get it looking cleaner. Instead of grounding in the engine bay, I want to ground a few things to a screw in the floor under the carpet, or else behind the seat not touching anything. Are either of these places a good one to ground?

Second, the hot wires to the instrument cluster. Theres a bundle of wires going everywhere, so Im a little confused. According to my haynes, it seems the solid green wire going from the light switch to the instrument cluster plug is the hot when switched on wire that I need to tap into to light up my extra guages. Is this correct? But in the manual, it shows a fuse block between the switch and panel, and my truck dosent have one. Any ideas?
