Default Rear Back Up camera install help???

Ok guys, somebody has had to have installed one of these already. Ive looked all through the back of the car and have to be missing something obvious. I have my camera mounted just above the license plate and I cant find anywhere to run the wiring inside the car from the rear. Ive taken out the license plate lights thinking I could go through there but apparently it is double walled inside that space and theres no way to get a drill bit inside there to make me a nice hole. Has anybody done this and if so where did you run your wiring through?

I ran mine behind the license plate. there is a little rubber stopper you can remove and run the wire through. No drilling required.

For the next guy. The inside plastic liner has been removed and you're looking at the center of the trunk rear. The foil is "fat mat" like sound deadener.
