    It's a work in progress. See my build thread.
    It's more than that. I had a 3rd gen SR5, and it was much more than 1/4".

    You're aware the the actual coil/magnet of a Qi charger pad is about 3/16" thick and a couple inches in diameter?

    I expect it's mounted under the cubby plastic bottom, so there isn't anything to remove that'd give you more space.

    Then there's something else taking up the space.

    You can unpause the audio by simply turning the volume knob. This works for all sources.

    I did a quick search but did not find anything related. Sorry if this was already posted.

    18.5 from 0 to full. I think that gives you 2.5 left in reserve

    Hope I'm not repeating someone:

    The seatbelt off chime while driving will progress from slow beeps to a series of faster beeps and then stop beeping completely. Series will repeat only after vehicle has come to complete stop. Good when off-roading.

    Do any other '17 owners have a separate key? I have one that works on the tailgate along with my fob key.

    Yes, I have an additional non-fob key. To say it's a separate key might lead folks to think it's keyed differently when it isn't.

    I'd imagine so, mostly a matter of how much it'd cost. A pop&lock may be cheaper.

    *shrug* It (whether that or something else) was a port option on mine that I chose. Works nice.

    Yeah, I should have said the '16s are keyed differently, the tailgate key doesn't match the fob key.

    I thought about trying to rekey the tailgate but I figured the pop n lock will be more convenient in the long run. And boy is it convenient.

    Anyone else notice the shelf in the glove box is pretty easy to pop out and the space is huge if you do?
