Rear wiring Harness on BE - questions

The front harness is fine. I'm laying out the rear harness and rear hookups out of car to make sure all works before I install it into the "cave" of the rear of the car. I've hooked it up to the front harness and have power to the rear

There's lots of Black wires (ground of course), but I don't see any ground connections coming from the front harness. If I
"Make" a ground seems seem to work, but then get squirrely. I've got everything hooked up, but when I try the blinkers, things get weird.

Are there "screwed in" grounds in the back harness? Do I need to go back there witha big flashlight and see what's up?

Thanks.
