I am looking for some assistance on installing the trunk light into my 73. Anybody have any diagrams or pictures that I can work off of for a location? Thank you in advance guys!

 
Mine does not have one, but I'm pretty sure I have seen them mounted just to the right of the driver's side trunk lid hinge. There are a large and small hole used for mounting. Hopefully someone else can confirm this. See pic below:

Just left of the trunk latch there is a rectangular hole for the light fixture and a small round hole for the screw that secures the fixture to the deck lid (and provides a ground for the light). The wire is routed between the frame and skin of the trunk lid and exits through a rectangular hole with a small round hole next to it, located to the left of the left trunk hinge. The round hole is for a plastic wire retainer push clip. There is a second wire retainer clip where the frame of the package tray and the frame of the left quarter panel meet. The electrical connector is above the left wheel house. Chuck
