I don't need any more ports either. But if I did, I'd be proud of myself if I could do a slick install like IronDan's.
It's actually very simple to install. Here's a video from Akro himself installing one in his maverick. Different looking cubby insert but still the same concept.

I definitely feel you on cable management. I hate having exposed wires everywhere. I love my bulletpoint system and have my wires tucked behind the screen system.

Nice looks good man! I plan on getting a bulletpoint system down the road. No real need for one now but I think they look nice and I don’t use that cubby for anything. You should get their cable management kit. Comes with clips for the arm and sticky channels for the dash. Pair that with a simple black cable with a thinner casing and it would be practically invisible!

Way cool. Makes me wanna do one... just because it's SO COOL. And simple.

I bought a grid insert & attached a magnetic phone mount. It works, but when my phone's not there to block view of the grid, it looks kinda cheesy. Especially compared to yours & Akro's installs which enhance the aesthetic appeal of the dash... I like sharp & tidy... If I could find a 6" charging cable... 🤔

I'll add it to my list of possibilities. Thanks, Dan.

I ended up going with an Afterplug cable. May try some other cables but this seems to do the trick. Wish it was slightly shorter but it does the job and looks clean!

Hey guys. I know I'm a bit late to the party but I recently finished installing my Akro Designs USB Cubby Insert. Coupled that with my QuadLock Vent Mount with the upgraded MAG Wireless Charging Head. Very clean and simple installation. I am a cable management nut so being able to hide all of the wires was a big bonus. Plus it frees up one of the lower console USB ports and adds an extra up top for my ipad when I get around to purchasing a Bulletpoint Solutions Rubigrid Mount. A bit of an investment if you're not already a QuadLock user but any vent style mount will work. Overall I couldn't be happier with the outcome!

Install looks great, and I like how you're repurposed the cubby. My favorite part though, is your choice in music. 2 incredible bands

Not sure if you meant to type anything in response to the quote or not but I do not see anything. @Craiger9131

Here is another idea. Using small magnet to hold.

That's as good of a use for the cubby as any, but having two clocks centimeters apart that are off by several minutes would raise my blood pressure. 😀
