USB cigarette lighter port

[NathanJax]

Nathan use the piece I linked to at amazon, skip the factory electronics, use factory plug.

where would that piece go? in place of the factory USB input? How would it be held in there?

In the rectangular part where the factory end would go

i think yates is on the correct track...

Duh. may have to glue in the adapter for support but not a big deal

The rectangular piece (20944418) goes in the center console.

The round piece (20944422) goes in the dash



If the $30 factory adapter has the female USB inside the dash (like the pic you posted) I'd rather it look factory...

I don't see how the rectangular part goes in the dash. It says it goes in the center console.

This is the rectangular piece I meant.

you remove one of your 500 cig lighters GM gives you and this new housing pops in.. most likely has compression clips on the back side. then use the linked connector that yates shared.. that pope into the round plastic area int he rectangle slot. then you have a couple foot USB extension (radio shack or MONOPRICE.com) adn that goes to your head unit..


i wonder how this will look in an NBS ?? humm

If I do it I will probably take out the one in the Center console but maybe just one of them in the dash

So your saying just make a piece instead of buying the $30 piece
