Easily accessible source of 5V power inside Solo?

[Pedals2Paddles]

Is there good 5v source accessible without totally tearing down the Solo? Just removing the battery tray and GPS, exposing the top of the upper board. I need to tie some lights in, and would rather use a built in 5V source rather than using a BEC on the main power.

Accessory bay pin 17 and pin 19
1 amp max output when you combine the two.

I must be missing something. How do you open the bottom accessory bay??

It's the little plastic plug on the bottom of the solo near the gimbal. Just pry it out.

Well, yes there's that but I can't solder to that. I'm looking for a point I can solder to.

The header costs less than $2 and is mentioned on the page linked to earlier.
