Additional Usb charge socket locations ?

[andy_d]

looking for advice on where those who have Added additional usb power sockets to the V50



is the size/type i am looking at ,and thinking of the "coin tray" at the front of the center console behind the Waterfall part, so as to avoid usb leads all over the cabin
alternately if you have found a different place to add similar type usb sockets please let me know,

i do require the 12v sockets by the gear shifter for standard 12v plug items, however the one on the rear of the console ,for rear seat use, is also under consideration to be swapped ,with suitable alterations to the mounting plastic
(replacement panel inbound so car can return to Standard if needed)

thankies folks

In the center console under the two cup holders there is space to add USB charging and come off the 5V lighter by the gearstick, Then you can have cables coming from under the cup holders which allows them to be out of the way.

The cubby hole behind the waterfall pops out easily and has quite a lot of room underneath, so you could probably install one of those outlets there and have it flush with the bottom of the cubby hole.

thanks for that,, i can see me playing there ,,once its a little cooler, seems a neat/possible and hidden solution, and if i use short cables to devices not so much to hide behind trim
