Inverter Powered Wall Plug
Added a wall plug behind the TV to power the TV from a small inverter. (see picture of plug unit)

I bought a 20 foot 14GA AWG extension Cord off Amazon and cut off the Female End.

I taped a wood screw to a 5 foot piece of string and the tied the other end of the string to the cut off end and the power cord.

I removed the wood cover from under the jack knife sofa and then removed the shroud that covered the slide out wiring.

I fed the screw through the hole in the lower cabinet where the slide Out wiring passed. (See opening to left under jack knife sofa)

I removed the Jensen Stereo form the lower cabinet and then tied a magnet to another 5 foot piece of string.

I reached in and dropped the magnet down in the cabinet well near the outside wall and hooked onto the screw that I placed through the wall earlier. (see picture that shows wire coming through wall near outside shower plumbing)

Pulled up the string and the magnet with screw attached. I then pulled the 1st piece of string up while my wife fed the extension cord in through the hole. I pulled the string until 8 feet of cord reached the stereo opening.

Next I marked and cut out the wall where I wanted to place the table top power center. Keep the hole nearest the trailer outer wall to avoid contacted with the shower stall. The wall has two layers of wall board on either side of a 3/4" wood strip. (see picture showing cutout in wall behind TV)

I then fed the extension cord up through the opening behind the shower wall and up to my new cutout.

Next I had to open up the power center, desoldered the original cord and soldered in the Amazon cord.

Finally you can see the plug leading to the inverter which is placed under the jack knife sofa.
Cutaway of lower cabinet to show opening at right end of stereo shelf. Thanks to Fred
