So I have an XLT with lux package but as many know the wireless charging only came with Lariat.
I have watched videos of DIY fuse tap and adhesive wireless charger but I went a bit simpler route.

The Insignia charger I have fits like a glove (width wise) in the slot and has a rubber ring to hold the phone in place for normal driving.

I can run the power cable through the seams in the console trim and will be adding my USB power via fuse tap to the cabin fuse panel. I am hoping to use #18 (IIRC the wireless charging fuse slot) to power it. I am thinking that they have this slot set to power off after some time?

I use this and it works great for my iPhone Pro Max 13.

I have an iPhone 14 ProMax and the wireless charger will not work with it. The problem is the thickness of the camera lenses. The phone cannot make contact with the mat.
One feature that would really be nice to have is the ability to have a plug inside the console that enables CarPlay.
When not using CarPlay the cord can be stowed in the console out of the way instead of my passengers feet.
