You can find either the trunk switch or the light that comes on. You can tap into the wires on the back and hook it up to a relay. And then hook up as many lights as you want to the relay.
If it is just a few lights drawing not much amperage, you could even tap directly into the back of the light already in your trunk.
Got a volt meter? Start testing the leads on the back of the light.
