    Hey all, I would like to clean up a USB line from my Kenwood Head. I am looking for a Dual USB Port that will snap into the front switch panel.
    The switch housing should look like the pic attached with preferably two USB Ports.

    Thx

    That’s what I did, 1 for charging and the other 1 I use for my iPod.

    I know Scosche makes a duel round with one charger and one pass through but it’s round.

    Thanks for all the replies.
    It doesn't need to be dual. My Kenwood Audio Head had 2 short USB lines out the back. I need one for Android Auto (until I possibly dongle bluetooth). I want a clean factory look using one of the blank switch ports. I would like it to fit and snap in place.
    I'll research the ideas to all posted. Thx

    Use for Android Auto. Not Bluetoothing quite yet. Will this snap into one of the vacant port on the center console controls?

    I have a Kenwood head unit in my truck with 2 usb outlets and for my second one I just cut a hole in a switch blank and press fit the end of the cable into it. It's not real pretty but it works. At some point I'll clean up the edges of the hole for a cleaner look.

    Not the best picture but here's what it looks like.

    It fits nicely, sorry, no pic handy. it is strictly for charging, though. Might be able to hack it to make it a data port, but not something I've looked into.

    Got it for charging, but also to add a volt meter to my immediate info. Now I still need oil pressure.

    There are actually two USB pig tails off the back of the head unit for Android Auto and what ever else. I would plug the kit I am looking for into the pig tail and mount the other end for phone plug in.
    Thx for the info. I'll figure it out.
