Radar Detector power

Going on our first road trip in our Carnival and was hoping to use my Valentine One radar detector. It uses the 12v as a power supply and I do not need to hardwire.
I see plenty of USB ports but the closest 12V is in the rear of the arm rest. Am I missing something?

You could try a USB to 12v step up converter if you aren’t able to easily conceal the wiring to the 12v outlet.

Funny enough, I didn't notice this before we purchased the car and was surprised when I wanted to add a dual USB 12v adapter and there was no place to put it. Then again, I also get it. 12v ports are getting kinda dated. Newer items are being powered by USB now.
