You should have a few rubber gromets in your engine bay. Just punch a hole through one of those and feed the wires all the way to the boot.

the clutch cable hole in the firewall ,how big is your cable?

earth the headunit onto bare metal of the chassis of the car ,and if you dont know what your doing go and get a pro to do it and disconnect the battery before you do anything

make sure u fuse the +amp wire as close as possible to the battery and dont use a bigger fuse then what the cable is rated 4.
