    TW,

    Does anyone know where I can find either of these products in 2024? They seem to have been completely deleted. Why did they suddenly disappear?

    Amazon.com: powoq Fit 2015-2021 Toyota Tacoma Wireless Charger Mount Wireless Charging Tray 15W Wireless Phone Charging Pad for 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 Toyota Tacoma Accessories : Cell Phones & Accessories

    Amazon.com: Bomely Wireless Charger Tray Compatible with 2015-2021 Toyota Tacoma 15W Fast Center Console Wireless Phone Charging Pad Tacoma Accessories : Cell Phones & Accessories

    I'm not interested in putting my phone in the center organizer. So I do NOT want this or any similar product.
    Amazon.com: CarQiWireless Wireless Charger for Toyota Tacoma 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023,Automotive Center Console Organizer Wireless Charging Pad for Tacoma Accessories 2016-2023 : Automotive

    I did do several searches on TW forums, so if I missed anything that answers this already then please direct me.

    Thanks for the tips!

    Regards,
    Jeff

    Unless you have a phone without a camera bump on the back, any “pad” style charger is going to be iffy. Puck is the way to go even though, admittedly, the 3d printed part is just to hide the excess cable. The same thing could be achieved with double sided tape and a puck with a shorter cord

    The ones used in 3rd gen overheat, melt, much of the time "lights are on, nobody is home" because they do not deliver enough "magic waves" to cut though the rubber coating and the housing of most cellphones.

    Removal is common, often replaced by a simple deeper-well center-storage cubby.

    Thanks for the tip. Definitely considering it.

    I had read about this. And so I was looking into after market options.. if they exist.

    Thanks for the feedback so far. Any other ideas welcome.
