What did you do with your Grenadier today?

I could really do with those. Excellent job.

Plus one

I only play on the 3d printer every now and then and still finding my feet really. I do like playing in fusion 360 designing stuff though (still learning that as well).

I like the idea of having usb outlets there to keep the wife happy and I really like the size and shape of that usb charger - it is almost the same size as one of the rotary knobs. I may have to play a bit to see what can be done to fit one to a replica knob.
Is that a Narva one or did you get it off amazon/ebay?

I don't like the idea of a phone there though, don't want to be restricting any a/c air flow having a phone in front of the vents so i have yet to explore the space behind/under that trim piece.

I don't really need access to my phone over and above what is available via the vehicle controls so I have my phone holder mounted down by my front seat out of the way. I can slip the phone in and out easy enough and the usb cable just goes up beside the drivers seat into the centre arm rest for power/connectivity.

Hi Greg
The usb charger came from switch boss

I don't need my phone, I use Android auto as well, but there isn't really anywhere to put it, it's fallen onto the floor from the little shelf and the tray in front of driver needs sides. I don't find it disturbs the air con much. I'll get a photo of it in place tomorrow. It's the charging that I require, on long trips. I hated the cables everywhere. I put a charger in near the handle in front of passenger, but it was hard to see and use. I took it out and ran wires to this new one. Harder to take that one out than put this one in!

Yes, would also be interested too.
Great idea .

If you get some seat covers from Tougher you can stick your phone in this little pocket here - perfect

Or in this one, and you can charge from the plug on the back of the centre console
