I did that for my dashcam , ended up just drilling a small hole at the side on the rear parcel shelf .
I used an unused fuse slot in the rear boot (saloon) fuse board for the front dashcam wiring

Once you remove the rear seats, the side trim panels pry off and you get access to thw wires from the boot to cabin. It goes on the left side of the car and the panels and trim pieces are easily pried off, it'll sound like its breaking but its the clip that its held onto which is metal. Be caxreful too as they are sharp. This runs all the way to the glovebox area.

It might be easier to tap into the +12v connection that is located under the bonnet?
