1986 Camaro Hatch Contact Plate

Where would I find one of these? I am trying to get my high mount brake light working. I have an 86 Camaro with the external 3rd brake light. A previous owner swapped in rear panels from a 91 Camaro so there isn't even a cutout in the trim let alone a contact plate. Also, do interior panels exist or will I have to cut out the panel rather than trying to source one? I have the striker, but again with the interior panels currently in the vehicle its completely covered.

Parts needed:
Brake light contact plate
Trunk lower trim that covers the hatch motor
Hatch trim on bottom of hatch.
