12 volt battery feed up front of car

I am putting on a set of Super Oscars on my MINI S 2006 Coupe and on my sons 2005 MINI S Coupe.

I want to run the power from these directly from the battery through a set of relays. Is there a power feed in the front of the car that comes right from the battery that I can put a few 12 or 10 gauge wires on to power the lights?

You can use the jump start terminal in the engine compartment (yes it's there even though the S has its battery in the back). The location is described in your Owner's Manual under "Jump-Starting".
