Wireless charge upgrade

[cmysstailights]

2015 suburban. The truck came from factory with it and it sucked. Heres my upgrade.

 

Took apart the lid. Underside cover is held on with retainer clips. Take your time, they are on there good.

Once off you will see torx screws, t15 is the size.

I had to cut the opening bigger for the charging pad and raise it up so it sits directly underneath the rubber mat.

I hard wired it to the 12v cig lighter in the back of the consol. To remove the cover its 4 torx screws t20. 2 at the top and 2 at the bottom behind the rubber inside the cubby. Lift up and towards the rear of the truck. There are 2 clips at the top holding it inplace.

 

To assemble just reverse everything. Only issue i have is the ru ber mat above the charginf pad is too thick. Phone charges without case but not with case.

 

The clip is the factory plug to charge pad. Dont use it. With this mod you do lose the charge icon on infotainment center.

Thanks for the pictures. Is the new charging unit a lot faster than the factory module?

A little faster, gm said my phone was not compatible. It was very touchy to gwt to work. Now i can place anywhere on there and it charges.
