I did reference https://www.yourcobalt.com/forums/electrical/30073-how-wire-backup-camera-into-trunk.html but its closed and doesn't offer enough details.
I have a license plate style rear camera I am trying to wire to 2010 Cobalt.
I can't figure out the easiest way to wire from the license plate to the tail light.
I removed the plastic cover ( see screenshot below) hoping to reveal a way to the wires but there is none, just the inner frame housing of the car with no way to get to the wiring on the other side where the license is at.
If I try to trace the wiring for the bulb by the plate it seems to run along the bumper to the left side of car.
I really don't want to remove the bumper and don't want to drill unless everyone agrees there is no other option.
