There is a few but there is one where the hood release cable goes through, just follow the cable and it will lead to a rubber boot that you can take off and theres a hole

There is one sorta off center in the rear of the engine bay. Looks towards the windshield, towards the drivers side.

This is the one I used, Its just below where the VIN is . Pull off the rubber stopper and you will find a hole big enough to put a 4 guage wire through.

A rubber grommet , kinds looks like a donut. You put the wire through the grommet before putting the wire through the hole. the gromet seals the hole around the wire. got to any store like radio shack etc and buy one that fits your hole diameter.
