Default Television hook up help

I just purchased a 2001 American Cruiser. It has a block attached to the interior of a front cabinet where the TV hooks up. This block has inlets on the back side, which cannot seen, for power and antenna. The front side has two 7.5 amp power connectors, a male coax stub and a earphone/speaker female outlet for a stereo, male pin.

My problem is this, it only came with one power connector and I want two. one for the TV and one for the DVD player. I have searched all over town as well as the internet for another connector that would fit this block but have not found one. I have no idea if this block came with the RV or was an after market item.

I can always do a "work around" but am hoping that someone might be able to tell me where I might find such an item. I took a picture of it but can't figure out how to display it. OK now it is here. _MG_9234.jpg

Do you mean this?

If that's the right item, you'll just need to call around and ask if anyone sells that part number

Thanks for the info. How did you come up with that? The drawings are somewhat in conflict as the furthest to the left shows the flats turned 90 degrees from the drawing second from the left. The second one is what I'm looking for but you have given me what I need to locate one of these. Thanks again.

Searched google for automotive electrical connectors, then saw the type of connector and narrowed it down to the individual one that looked the most similar.

It may not be exact, but the exact one could be on that site. Take some time to look as there are literally thousands of connectors there. Glad I could help.
