Here's what I did.
Roncor, here's what I did. I didn't want to drill a hole, in part because I don't like doing irreversible things unless I have to and also because I was afraid of puncturing the vacuum reservoir. I discovered that I could lift up the fabric-covered hardboard with a wooden wedge between it and the metal underneath, and snake the wire through the crack at the edge of the rear window.
Then I routed the wire through the opening for the first aid kit and down into the trunk. From there, the connection to the brake light wire (under the plastic panel, on the driver's side) was easy.
