Question How to access light failure sensor?

Can anyone give me some tips on how to get at the light failure sensor in an '89 Camry wagon? I know where it is in general but can't see an easy way to remove the trim to get at it. I don't really want to just start breaking trim. Any thoughts?

thanks.

In order to get to the light failure sensor you need to remove inner trim pannels on the left side (the window trim and the side panel).
There is no shortcuts for this procedure, unfortunately.

Thanks. I just removed the window trim and part of the side panel and found the box. Now I just need to figure out how to hook up trailer wiring. Any thoughts on that? I heard it needs to be done before the LFS.
