A tip would be to make split wires somewhere where it is hidden off of two seperate ground wires, however taking them off of one would be fine as well.
You can also try to double crimp them but if you are sleeving them this will make it very difficult. So the split wire is the best option. I have made a video guide on how to do these cleanly on youtube or on the video guide sticky.
