I would like to bring power into the van with out drilling. Are there any preexisting inlets? I have a 2015 gas model.

Well on to the site
Yes, you may fish a wire through the existing gasket where the trailer wire plug is designed to go out on the drivers side. It's very simple to do and no drilling is necessary. I also believe someone (proeddie, perhaps) came up with an excellent solution to mounting the RV style receptacle in an electrical PVC handi box. Personally, I just drilled a hole in the plastic bumper for my receptical and it is next to impossible to see unless you are looking for it.

Welcome!
I set mine up so I didn't have to cut a hole in the side of the van. Then I saw how KOV (and others) have done it, in the bumper. I think either solution gets the job done without cutting sheet metal!
Visit my website (linked below) if you're interested in the parts I used and how I did it. In any case, I'd recommend some SO wire to link the outside plug to the inside outlet(s).
