Aftermarket rear camera install questions

Hi all,

I've searched and searched but everyone seems to gloss over the rear bumper wiring part of the rear camera install. How are y'all getting the wiring from the license plate area to inside the car? Are you guys removing the entire rear bumper to make it easier? Or am I missing an access panel somewhere?

Follow the stock license plate bulb harness. Poke a new hole in the grommet.

But how do you even get back there to follow it? I can't even get my hands between the harness and inner body shell.

You can tap into the lt grn back-up light wire by reaching down through the holes behind the license plate.
The harness goes into the trunk behind the right taillights.
