Hello ll,

A good while ago (didn't pay much attention) I read something about a wireless phone charger console lid.. has anyone seen one of those?

I've been browsing around a bit, there seem to be "dual coil" chargers, that cover more space. (for vertical as well as horizontal charging, it's a stand.) These things are fairly inexpensive, so I am thinking of taking one apart and mount it underneath the cell phone tray in the center console. This should be pretty easy.
(and a lot less expensive than buying the OEM lid with charger.)

I bought that and placed it on the console cell phone space. PERFECT fit and I'm very happy with it so far! The vehicle specific ones will sell for 150 to $200

That looks like a perfect one, however I'd mount it right under the tray. I saw something similar on ebay too

I saw that, you can buy a lid specifically for the Tahoe for approx $200... that's a little stiff.

Not amazing pictures but you get the point, wires go in and plug directly into the console lighter. Very simple and cheap mod that looks oem
