Default cable between the engine compartment and the cabin

Good morning all,

I need to run a cable between the engine compartment and the Type F cabin to install a front camera.
I only found one pass near the steering column, which seems to come out quite low on the engine side.

Have you ever done this?
Did you find another place?
Should I go through the underside of the vehicle?

Thanks for your feedback.

Thanks for your feedback.
Have you considered a wireless camera?

Thank you for the answer.

I thought about it quickly, because I'm not sure the video quality is good and there is no electromagnetic interference from the engine, or latency.
I will inform myself.

Not sure what you said but ok. I am installing an Android wireless camera in my car as we speak. The screen will display on my phone as needed.
