From memory all power, apart from starter motor and 100amp fuse on engine for alternator, goes to the fuse box in the boot, from where it gets distributed to the rest of the car electrics. May be some differences between cars from memory (a bit like the fuel lines) and some may run it from engine bay down the inside of he transmission tunnel, others on running into passenger footwell and then along the top of the transmission tunnel.

I think it's 8 mm,
The big fuse is 6 mm. Not 100% if someone wants to confirm.
