terminator spoiler question

One thing that the previous owner of my Mach did was install a spoiler from an '03/'04 Cobra. I dig it.

One thing that the previous owner of my Mach didn't do was put a trunk light in there after the swap. I've searched quite a few combinations of words and, from what I can tell, he did buy the wiring adapter from Ford. It just looks like he didn't buy the clip on light that I've seen in the pictures. I'd like to wire in some LEDs of my own, but I can't seem to find which wire is only hot when the trunk is open.

I'm looking at the wiring diagrams in my Haynes manual. Page 12-29 shows a blk/pnk wire after the luggage compartment lamp switch going to the luggage compartment lamp. I think that's the wire I want, but I can't find a black and pink wire anywhere in the trunk.

I've managed to find the attached pictures of one of these setups working properly with the clip on light. My wiring matches this...with one exception...I've got no clip on light. From these pictures, can anyone tell/show me where I might find the wire that's only hot when the trunk is open?

Re: terminator spoiler question

Mods, feel free to delete if necessary. I got my answer on another forum.

If anyone is looking to answer this themselves, have a look at the picture for connector 428. Sure enough, once I pulled back some more factory tape, I found where the previous owner had cut off this connector and there was a brown/white wire and a lite green/orange wire. I hooked these up to the LEDs I had already purchased and it worked like a charm. Sorry for the poopy cell phone pics, but you get the point.
