Parking sensor question

In our recent European trip we rented a Jetta TDI for two weeks that had parking sensors on it and my wife liked this feature very much. I promised her to install a kit on our car and have a question for those of you, who already installed it or just purchased a vehicle with this feature. I am wondering what is the best place to enter the sensor cables from the bumper bay to the trunk without drilling a new hole? The tail light harness has an entry point but I am not sure that four cables (or even two in each side) would pass trough and allow the assembly to close properly. I would be grateful if any of you could share his working solution.
Thanks in advance.

solved

I installed the sensors this labor day and the cables went trough fine the hole of the wiring harness of the tail light assembly. I opted for two cables each side and the light fixtures close properly. The total installation lasted me bout two hours. I thought at least a few people from here have parking sensors installed. I was wrong, it appears to be a rarity.
