    That I don’t know. You can definitely message James Randy Taylor on Facebook, he doesn’t chime in here as often.

    Yeah I’m not sure. I know it’s a plug and play system, so it won’t require any cutting or splicing. But I guess you always could depending on where you wanted it hooked up.

    Yeah the good news is that this piece should still sit below the two plastic pieces on the side of the side, so even if it slides I don’t expect it to go far. But, I’m sure if it slides it would stop charging. That’s why I’m so curious about the magnets that it uses. I’m sure JRT wouldn’t sell it if it didn’t work like a boss!

    It says plug and play, disconnecting the back console isn’t plug and play.

    If this somehow would work on a Sequoia I’d be all over it. Don’t have a use for it in my Tundra, but the wife would love it.

    If he can confirm or test that phones with "metal piece" on the back [for magnetic phone holder] will still charge, I'll purchase. It won't work for me with an Anker one that I purchased.

    I have that metal disc on my phone. Trick is to mount it on the lower part. Mine still charges using wireless charger and have the metal plate.

    Right around here. Use masking tape to find the sweet spot before permanently mounting the plate.

    I asked that question on Facebook about if it was removable if not being used, and James said it was and just has the basic phone charger connection to the base.

    For those looking for install instructions (sorry, no pics, not really needed for this one):

    *Disconnect negative terminal from battery first*
    1. The panel with the outlets comes straight out (4 clips on the corners). Easiest way for me was to open the outlet covers, put a finger in each, squeeze together and pull straight out.
    2. Unplug one of the outlets, plug the supplied harness to the outlet, and the outlet harness to the other supplied connector (pretty obvious when you look at it).
    3. Gather all of the excess wires (I also wrapped them in foam) and tuck behind the panel.
    4. Run the usb wire under the panel (there's enough room so it won't get pinched) and attach to the charger.

    It comes with a metal piece to attach to your phone in order for it to be magnetically attached and not slide around, but I think it will be alright without using that for normal driving. Other than that, my phone easily connects to it through a slim silicone case.

    well, well, well, just like I thought it would wire up. Plug and play means no wire cutting not no panel removal.

    After driving around with it today, my phone didn’t move at all (metal attachment not installed on my phone). It would take a pretty hard turn to make it move, and that’s just with the rubber part of the charger holding it in place.
