[Art Contoni]

Anyone know if the 2017 Yukon dual USB-A can be swapped with the newer USB-C and USB-A or USB-C/USB-A/SD CARD

you would need to just buy one and try it, they can be found for $25-30 on ebay

I added an adapter that plugs into cigarette lighter location. Cheap and easy.

I believe this option will only work for charging.

Pretty sure it will just plug in and everything should work. All of these that I have seen are just a USB hub regardless of what ports are on the front. It has a single mini USB plug on the back and a six-pin connector that provides power, ground, illumination and audio (if there is a 3.5mm AUX IN). I bought one of these to play around with and as long as you supply 12V and ground it can be plugged into a computer and everything works.

Ok - thanks for the replies - I'll be the guinea pig.

Just ordered one on eBay hopefully here by the weekend...



Is there a preferred set of pry tools I should get - this is something I have procrastinated on buying since in the past you could get by with a mini flat blade screw driver most of the time.

Gotcha, I just use mine for charging the wife's Iphone.

Not gonna lie I will order one off Amazon right now and go try it out on my suburban Sunday or Monday when I’m home…. I’ve been needing a USB-C.

Do they get hot or when you remove the cable the whole thing comes out?
