Reverse Light Wire

Anybody know where the wire (preferably not the one at the lights themselves) there is a reverse light in a 96 ranger? Maybe in the instrument cluster? Also, if anybody could shed some "light" (bad pun) on how I could possibly turn those on at will (without shifting into reverse) I would appreciate it.
