It sounds like he's looking to run some amplifiers, in which case he definitely does not want to tap off the fuse box. Too much draw for too small of wire.
Always fuse within 18" of the battery. I always had to drill my own holes, but there may be a spot below the brake booster on the driver's side (if thats the side your battery is on). As for running the cables, there is plenty of space underneath the door sills to hide it.
Also, if you are adding amps to the car, take the time and upgrade the "big 3". Your electrical system will thank you.
