Oh yeah, to get the cable through that little area...that is the corner junction of 4 panels. The small black piece I circled and the knife tip is touching, it just pops out. I made a tiny notch on it so it wouldn't pinch my cable.
Could you please post a pic of where you have the charging cable exiting on the outside of the console? I am thinking that this is the route that I am going to go as I like to keep my phone on a magnet holder that clips onto the air vent to the right of the steering wheel.
Exit point is into the front section of the side pocket, cable comes down from the top. Can't see the hole or bushing without sticking your head down on the floorboard. I have a little cable retainer next to my mount that holds the cable when not in use.
While that is a good idea to add another USB connection, it wouldn't work to accomplish what the OP was looking for, and that is a clean way to re-route the phone cable out of the center compartment while keeping it plugged into the existing USB port. Those ports in there are needed if you want to charge the phone AND use Android Auto/Apple Car Play. Adding another USB hardwired into the truck would only charge the phone.
