Where to run battery power to inside?

I am trying to run a small wire direct from the battery to the inside of the car under the dash to power up a stereo that requires a dedicated line. This has never been an issue in my last two vehicles that had many different spots to easily fish a wire in, but so far i can only find a single main wire bundle from the engine to the inside and it's not easy to get at.

Where have you guys who run amps/stereo etc brought the power cable in?

Thanks.
