Dumbest Question Ever...How To Ground Tail Lamps?

Self explanitory. I am dumb.



I rewired the entire truck. The kit I used was a factory style replacement harness. It did not include any ground wires. I've got a '55 2nd series, how do I ground the tail lamps? I know the obvious, that it needs to go to bare metal. But where does the other end go (on the lightor housing or?)?

Thanks in advance for putting up with my really dumb questions from time to time. This is the last hurdle before I can get back to driving. And if you've been following, I cured my stumble with a new distributor. The plastic bushing in the dizzy case for the wire to the points was bad and the gear was worn leading to timing issues.
