you should not worry about a good ground send a ground wire out with the siren output and worry more about concieling the siren and wires

Well I usually ground my siren wire with the actual alarm ground.

I usually try to install them underneath something on an inner fender.  With all the electronics on today's cars there is plenty of hidden areas that you can mount a siren.  I do not know the Saturn specifically but I like to mount the sirens so the wires and everything is hidden.

just make sure you cant reach the siren fron under the car.....run the wire in looming (for looks) and make sure you have a solid ground. also try to keep it away from the heat of the motor....point it down so water dosent collect inside of it....you should be able to find a good spot for it....

if you end up putting it close to the battery, watch the acid. it will kill the plasic down the road........
