    Have either of you guys gotten this or installed it yet? I'm planning on doing the same thing and I'm really curious to see how well this actually works

    Probably only 1.5 amps compared to the normal 3.1.... Hmmmm I'm wondering if that's a deal breaker

    I do too so it should be fine, that's good to hear that you got it so fast. I ordered a TRD antenna from eBay and it took over 2 months to get here

    Christian, I saw you have a dual USB charger in your power point and it looks like you were able to also keep the cover for the power point. tHis is exactly what I want to do. Where did you get your USB charger and are you able to close and latch the cover?

    Thanks Rock Lobster, you answered my question. Think I will order a switch to fit in the blank on the left and go from there. I have the older truck where I have no switches under the climate controls.

    I had put in the extra power point in place of the cig.lighter. I guess what I meant to sayisI don't have the extra blanks under the climate controls like the newer trucks.

    so you ended up going the route of the usb + aux instead of the two USB? I ordered the two USB, one charges and one interfaces with the radio so it should provide USB audio + charge.

    Hoping mine will arrive today or tomorrow, it was in Miami as of 12/23.

    My 2009 has one but I've never used it and I haven't even checked to see if it will work with the 2014 stereo I installed. That being said, i'm just going to leave it in there and add the 2 USB ones. I understand your quandary, I don't like giving up (unused) OEM features for aftermarket stuff.

    Looked into swapping in a panel, seems like I have to tear my dash pretty much apart. I think it is more than I feel I can handle. I checked out your thread detailing what you went through when you installed your panel. You pretty much tore your whole dash a part.

    I have a Pioneer 7100NEX HU and if I plug my iPhone into the USB port coming off the back of the HU I get CarPlay to function. I'm looking for a nice clean way to have the USB port in the dash below the A/C and heater controls. Here is a link to a product that I think I can use to accomplish this. The lower USB port labeled "Audio" would be plugged into the back of the HU and should then provide CarPlay when I hook my iPhone to the audio USB plug in. Anybody out there care to comment?

    Thanks, does the unit fit nicely into the dash?
