    Wanted to check any see if anyone came up with a way to relocate or add a 12v outlet behind the dash to hide wires for chargers and things like that. I have a fast charger plugged into my cigarette outlet now and bought a separate 12v USB outlet I wired in behind my dash with the cord for my phone coming out where that weird cubby is to the bottom right of the steering wheel. I am going to run a USB hub like this from that slow USB port and run my phone solely on the fast charger in a 12v socket behind the dash. Since this port has a slim design I figured I could attach it to the top of the storage area under the dash by the cupholders if I need access to more ports for roadtrips and guests and whatnot. Depending on the day I am charging my phone, bluetooth headphones for the gym, wireless bluetooth speaker, or GPS rangefinder for the golf course.

    I am wondering if anyone has any cool ideas for hiding various wires behind the dash that supply power that I haven't thought of!
