100v accesories
Hi, it is under the middle box between passenger and driver seat. I unplugged it and then found the + and - wires and connected the USB sockets to it. This way it only powers on when I hit the button. I left the converter in the space. but make sure you solder the wires and use heat shrink wraps on it then cable tape. (the fabric type) to stop rubbing on the metal housing.

ALPHARD 5 FUSE BOX
It's two different motor sides. so the wiring goes to two different fuse boxes. There is on on the right side of the drivers buttons near the door. (behind the dash) The other is in the passenger footwell near the bottom left of the door you remove a plastic cover to get at them.
