It grounds through itself and the trunk. Make sure metal clean around the mounting hole on both solenoid and the trunk. The wire goes to a momentary switch and it needs to be a heavy gauge, pulls some decent current.
If you want to test it use jumper cables. Clamp the negative to the body of the solenoid and touch the positive to the wire. Or you could use a piece of wire. Just connect it the same.
I`ve got a couple of the buttons if you need one. Shoot me a pm and I`ll get you a shipping price

I usually install the trunk lock and run the wire up the conduit on the passenger side. Once you get the wire up into the glove box area, there are several large hot wires that can be used as a power source. I usually tap into the cigarette lighter wire. If you have power door locks, a remote entry system makes a nice addition. They are available on eBay for $20 or less. It is nice to be able to unlock the doors and trunk with the click of a button.
