    For us non-electricians can someone explain how to wire? I am cutting the plug off of one of the recommended desk/grommet receptacles and will have three bare wires to connect to...what, exactly?

    I am using the Toyota bezel shown on the first page. I am cutting a hole in the back of the center console, for the rear passengers to have access.

    Sorry, I just re-read your post. I misread. Which outlet are planning to use? Do you have a picture?

    I gotcha. But then you don't have any USB connections. I guess the other way is to cut off the smaller white plug and use those three wires (blue, white and black) to connect to the wires coming from a 3 prong outlet, right?

    I have a second port for the USB. I am direct wiring that to the DC outlet already in the console.
    Here are all my parts laid out

    You'd just have to make sure you get them to the correct terminals.

    Right. Now I'm thinking I don't even need to smaller harness--just cut the small black plug off the blue and white wires and solder them to the cord from the plug.

    Just to clarify before I start tearing up my center console, everything I got from you in package 1 will let me do the 120 AC plug outlet and the 2 usb port just like your setup on page 1 right @KTJO 4x4 ?

    Got mine done with the desk plug pictured above (#269). Wrestling with the console is a bitch but everything seems to be working. Thanks, Katie!

    Do you have a link to the square one? When I checked sparks parts the part code 00016-00225 only shows the round one.

    Not currently, but I can find it when I get home if you still need it. If that's the part number from page one, that's what I ordered. Whatever picture is showing may be a little misleading. The outlet is meant to install in place of the 12v outlet. So that part is circular. The front portion (where the USB would plug into) is actually a square. Does that make sense? I can take a picture of it when I get home if you need a visual.

    Yah that makes sense. Picture on the front is round so misleading if it’s square. the round and square share the same part number I have seen.

    If you have a link that has the square one let me know.
