Not in the dash, but at the passenger side footwell next to the console is a power receptacle that you can use with a cigarette lighter plug.

But if I got to the footwell light every time you shut the door it will go off.

Now I know why your writing is so bad, because your reading is just as bad. I said the power receptacle NOT the footwell light.

FYI-The power receptacle under the dash is live all the time which means it will be a drain on the battery when the car is off.

Hopefully his TFT monitor has an on off button, but if not he could always wire an on off switch into the circuit.
