Hi Daniel

Welcome to the Forum

From memory there are 2 earth straps the main one is on the right engine mount to the chassis. I haven't done this on a Diesel but it should be in the same place you may have to remove the splash guards to get at it. There is also a secondary strap on the exhaust towards the back of the car.

Hope this helps 

Dave
