    Added wireless charging to my second gen in the cubby to the right of the steering wheel


    Disassemble a Samsung desktop wireless charger
    Made a cardboard template
    Used an add a circuit to the window washer
    Used a power cable for a dash cam that had a micro USB plug that fit perfectly onto the same Samsung charger
    Used some 1/8th inch dense something plastic to replace the cardboard templates

    Turns on with the key on, charges at fast charge rates, no smoke no fire.

    I would think water would migrate up through the holes that aren’t sealed, and then get trapped because it can’t drain out now??

    Good idea. I reinforced mine with some bolts .
    Ranch hands are used to sit on it when I carry them with their saddles, and the bed rails bear a lot

    Get the steel ones from KB Voodoo, and Linex them. I did that and they’re just about indestructible.
