Need to make a switch wireless

So here is my problem: I do have a Ford Ranger Wildtrack for which I bought some lights to mount in the back cabin, facing the rear for when I work outside. The lights have a plug for a cigarette lighter and a switch in the middle of the power cable with a power button to switch between 4 or 5 light modes.

I am now looking for a solution to make the switch wireless, so I can flip it on while driving (great for backing up in dark places). Does anybody have an idea how to do this without having to run wires through the whole vehicle and drilling holes?
