Rhodes Chroma Polaris

so, i pulled my chroma out last night and began the process of removing/cleaning the front panel.  unfortunately, as i was trying to take off the ground nut the whole screw broke off and im left with a little nub where the bolt would go.  would it be ok for me to just solder the grounding wire to the panel where the screw once was?  i suppose i could also just solder a new screw and bolt, but im not sure if soldering grounds the same like it was before.  much thanks!!

It's almost impossible to solder to a big piece of steel. Better to put the
lug on the nearby panel board mounting screw.
