Default Built in wireless charging pad
Has anyone tried one of these https://www.crutchfield.com/p_142FDQ...fdq01&skipvs=T. Looks like a great use for this little used area.

Well, that's nifty. The only thing, it seems to cover up the USB ports underneath.

I could make this for a hell of a lot less than 100 bucks and you could maintain your factory usb and match the factory leather. Instead of installing a screen there, I would mount a wireless charger. Built in wireless charging pad-zrfdvrh.jpg

Interested also - also, what are the dimensions of the insert piece? I could get my tape measure, but I'm at work. Thanks

I built one for my old Mazda for like $30, you just need a wireless charger- take it apart and you'll find the charger coil and you can put it wherever you want. Just cover it with a very thin piece of plastic

Agreed. I'd like to get the dimensions of this piece to 3D print an insert. I think I'd like something like you're suggesting that has a drop-in fit so it's easily removed to access the small storage below.
