Retrofit wireless charger
Hi
Has anyone fitted a retrofit wireless charger that they can recommend?
Ideally one that can be done via a DIY?
Thanks

Re: Retrofit wireless charger
Hi,
Just a heads up for future, If you type Wireless Charger in the search box your find a few links to other threads asking the same questions with some links to other products that people have looked at.
Here's what I got when I tried this search on this site,
search.php?keywords=wireless+charger
Hope this assists you but if there is nothing there that helps then come back and ask away on here, I am sure someone will be able to assist.

Re: Retrofit wireless charger
I'm intending to get one, looking at the wiring loom in the advert, it looks like there is a positive and negative feed and some canbus connections required I believe to show the charging display when charging, as for the aerial connection you can get a compatible aerial from ebay for under £10 I had the same type of aerial on my 15 plate Tiguan r, I am going to do some more research on the fitting.

Re: Retrofit wireless charger
That's a lot of money, think i will stock with plugging in the USB cable.

Re: Retrofit wireless charger
I just bought one of these;
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-In-1-Car-Q ... 2749.l2649
Plugs into a USB adapter in the 12v socket. Charges my iPhone 12 Mini with no problems. It's not an OEM looking solution, but for under £15 its fine.

Re: Retrofit wireless charger
I've left the cable rolled up and then used double sided tape to fix the part with the electronics into the roof the pocket. It also has a red power light which is useful as it shines down onto the mat and illuminates the pocket.
I am thinking about cutting a hole into the rubber mat so it sits a bit more flush and adding a USB adapter behind the console so that the wiring can be all hidden out of sight. I have bought another mat so that if it doesn't look right I can go back to standard.
I did think about mounting it under the pocket, but it doesn't have the range to reach through the pocket to charge the phone.
