TV power?

I'm trying to connect a 19" Jensen to my 2021 T@g. The A/V cable and cable-cable are obvious but I can't, for the life of me, figure out where to draw power from. I took the rear panel out of the cabinet and expected there to be an obvious black and white (or red and black) cable there to splice into, but alas there is neither. Any help would be much appreciated!

I just installed power for the tv , 12 v. I pulled the power from the 12 v galley source. It takes a bit of fishing the wires thru , but was doable.
Enjoy. I didnt think it was something I needed, but we have really enjoyed a movie before bed.

We have added a dongle switch to our jensen tv..eliminates the parasitic drain and the dreaded night light

Not to hijack this thread, but does anyone still receive any analog TV in their travels by hooking up an antenna? If so, what kind of antenna and where would it connect?
I've used an old piece of cable, about a foot long, which has had the outside shielding stripped off (you can search for homemade antenna) and I bought a Chaowei DVB66 TV Antenna from Amazon. I think the homemade antenna worked best.

This is the antenna system I put together.
Digital Antenna, PVC, Suction Cups.
Can be easily faced in any direction.
[2019 Upgraded] HDTV Antenna - Digital Amplified HD TV Antenna 60-80 Mile Range 4K HD VHF UHF Freeview Television Local Channels w/Detachable Signal A (Vansky)
Built to go on top of the T@G or anywhere where the 16' cable will reach.
Can be amplified (Use USB portable battery)
Can be used camping or at home. (power outages)
Stores in a cardboard box (Total=2lb 6oz) and fits under T@G bed.
Works well in my testing. - Never used yet while actually camping.
Even though I carry it about, I would likely have not gone through the effort to buy and put together.
Normally cast from my phone Direct TV, Hulu, Netflix when in range, or utilize my hard drive which has currently 252 movies, 95 music concerts, 20 original produced videos and countless of other YouTube downloads.
