    I hate cords hanging from the dash. I have no problem ripping my interior out and drilling holes in plastic to hide cords and wires. Like most everyone else I'm aggravated that Toyota refuses to provide a constant source for 12v when the truck is not on. Today I finally got around to installing the first of three 12v usb constant on outlets. This one is for charging my phone and tablet.

    My phone has ridden in this spot since the day I bought the truck. It just seemed like the natural place to put it.20171108_124015.jpg

    The tablet cable is ran through the steering column part of the dash. Not sure if this will be permanent.
