    Hey guys, I’m adding a USB and want to tap into the cig lighter power. What is the trick to get to the back of that?

    Glad you got it. Yeah, I didn’t have to take out the radio. Just the radio trim and ac panel.

    That looks nice, I'd consider it if one of the ports was PD

    same wires. I had to cut off the original connector, just spliced them to the usb. There is not a lot of play in the wire so just enough wire to work with.
