If it´s automatic, check for the hole for clutch pedal cable in the foot well.
On V6 battery is only in the trunk.

I gave in trying to get a cable through the firewall as it was double thickness, with an air gap didin't try the clutch pedal area.
I know the CanBus system can be very sensitive to current variation, but have you thought of piggy backing off one of the main fuses in the cabin fusebox, the seat heating circuit?
