I've got a C-tek, it's plugged in pretty much identically to the OP and when driving, I leave the lead outside of the frunk weather seal, no problem.
When charging, if you put the charger on the windscreen, you can feed the lead upwards (i.e. toward the windscreen) so you can still shut and lock the bonnet while the car is on trickle charge. Simple.
As for that windmill invention; genius. (And yes, people seem to be taking the whole Brexit nonsense too far, viewing the whole world through some sort of binary, good/bad caleidoscope.)

As Phil mentions, I put mine under the little cover in the scuttle panel. Works really well as no need to open anything on car so all doors and bonnet etc can be left shut and locked.
Only takes a second to flip cover off by hand and the connector is waiting under there to plug into.
If you have a look in this earlier thread, there are a few pics.
