Why not put it inside the car, on the other side of the firewall? I don't think running long lengths of wire on an ignition component makes much sense. I've seen people put them in the glove box.

I have seen cars with them mounted under the seat(non power seats), in the console and in the glove box. I would try to keep it up front if it were my car.
