I always hate having to plug in my phone and unplug it in the truck. I wanted wireless charging like I use at home. But everything I find online was suction cup mounts and such. I know there is some kit out there that replaces the tray in console for wireless charging but I want to be able to look down and see what pops up on my phone.
So searching around I found this phone cradle that is made for these trucks that have the full center console. It mounts into the business cad holder in the console. I then went and bought a random wireless charging pad for home use and took it apart to get the electronics and charging coil out of it.
I had to cut a slot in the bottom of the cradle to be able to position the coil in the proper place, and used some GOOP to epoxy the electronics into the back of the cradle. I let it sit to cure overnight then went and dropped it into place in the console.
Awesome dropped phone on it and charges perfectly. and you cant see the back of the cradle even from the side while getting in the truck so it just looks factory.
