If it can be matched up to a corresponding laptop, then you just have to find a car charger that's compatible with that laptop.
Yes, there is a center pin for the charger.

I will post a picture tomorrow of the official charger brick. Hopefully, we can figure something out. Thanks for the help thus far!

EDIT: Now that I think of it, I believe there was a third white wire when we stripped of the connector to test with our DC-DC adapter. Maybe we just have to apply a certain voltage on that wire and it will work?
