Brake switch connection for BOA

Hello:

I have a 1997 chevy pick up. I am installing a Boa remote start, but I am having trouble with making one connection.  I can not get at the wires for the brake switch!  The switch is at the top of the brake pedal, and even though I can see the wires, ( I need to connect to the white one)  I can't get at them - Is there an alternate connection spot?  Is this connection an absolute must as it says in the install manual?  Has anybody else dealt  with this very poor placement of the brake switch?  My knuckles are all cut up from trying to get at this!

Thanks for your quick reply.  I spent most of an hour trying to unplg it.  The darn thing has a clip on the left side that I can only see by using a mirror! I haven't come up with a way to unplug it yet...  Can't get the clip pushed in because of poor placement. ( Typical of chevy engineering! )  The wires dissappear behind the intrument panel, but I was hoping I would not have to pull this off too!  I need to go use my other christmas present, a back massager, to get rid of the kinks in my back and neck from working on this.

Thanks! - anyone else??

THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!

I will look for it in the the column.  It should read the same way on the multimeter, right?  I was looking for it in the sill late last night... Now I know why I couldn't find it!!!!   - Will let you know later on today if all went well.  My bloodied knuckles couldn't take much more!
