There's a few ways use the bonnet release grommet on the drivers side, or there is the from it behind the glovebox/ pollen filter.

Have a search there's loads of threads on how to fit one. Just remember whatever hole you use it needs sealing!!

I did non of the above. I fed the hose from the pass side. If you look on the right hand side (pas side) of engine bay you will see a loom going into a rubber gromet. I used a metal wire clothes hanger to feed the cable through. Just be carefull not to pierce any wires or anything else.
