Running electrical wire from engine to dash

I just installed some Bling Foglights with angel eyes on my Mini which came with just DRL. I have the lights hooked up but now need to run some wires through the fire wall to a switch I will be mounting near the steering wheel.

WHERE CAN I RUN A WIRE FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT THROUGH THE FIREWALL on the passenger side of the car.

Thks, I appreciate any vectors you can give me.

on either the left or right side, under the cowl you will see a hard plastic cap, pop that off and under it you will find a rubber cap housing the wire loom.... you can feed through that with ease.

Easiest one to get to is the one behind the battery.
