What model car do you have?
Not sure what you mean by "main" one, but the only one I know for certain in the engine bay is at the back of the engine, on the exhaust-side. That's on an NA8

I ran my own one from the engine bay back to the battery.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.
