Anyone have any ideas on how to power the USB ports with just the 12+ and negative from the wire under the carpet in the center?

The USB cable is the OEM from the center console. My PPV didn't come with this option and I'm just trying to power up the OEM cable that came with the OEM console.

those plugs you are holding either go to the rear of the center console for rear 12v cigarette port and one may be for the a/v connectors, but they may also be for the inside console usb port and 12v adapter.
