Default No fluid from rear washer

I am not getting any fluid out of the rear window washer nozzle on my 2009 Accent hatchback. I disconnected the hose between the vehicle and the hatchback and confirmed that there is plenty of flow at that point, so clearly something is kinked/pinched/clogged in the hatchback tubing.

I had to get the vehicle inspected as it was from out of province, and one issue that had to be remedied was the non-functioning third brake light. I can't recall if the washer worked before the repair, but I suspect something wasn't hooked up properly or got kinked during the repair.

In an attempt to avoid just removing every panel *****-nilly, does anybody know how I go about removing the light and surrounding panels to see what I can find?

I figured it out. The hose was pinched between the spoiler and the hatch. There are five 10mm nuts that hold the spoiler on. Three are visible without removing anything, the other two are hidden under the plastic cover that goes at the top of the window.
