Bring your Vanagon into the 21st century! This clever snap-in addition to your dashboard replaces that dim (and no longer available) map light with a couple of new-fangled USB charging ports. One port nestles into the dash, and the other hides away in the glove box for discreet charging.
This functions like a standard USB charger. It can distribute up to 3A between the two ports—enough to charge two phones at once!
Kit Includes:
- 12V to 5V USB converter
- Two 5V/3A USB charge ports
- Custom-printed nylon mounting plate
- Screws to connect the charge port to the face plate
- Detailed installation instructions
Install notes: We have found that the size of the map light opening can vary by up to a millimeter. Very minor filing may be required to seat the faceplate nice and flat.
