NorthBoy Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Hi all, I'm new to my Vellfire 2010 and wiring electric sockets. I am looking for a twin USB socket to install next to the 12v cigarette socket in the central unit below the gear stick. I have seen an old YouTube video from Malaysia with the exact unit with a patch cable to take power from the 12v cigarette socket. However, I can't for the life of me find where this, or something similar can be found. Any kind soul who has done this job, wants to point me in the right direction? All the best for a great weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris.ac Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Depends on what you are willing to pay, and what you want. You can have standard usb, or the newer usb c. Here's a cheap one that does not require you to cut wires, you remove the plug from cig lighter and it connects in parallel.

Symbiotic Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 @Rat-XF I am super new to Alphard owners club and am looking at swapping out the centre console. Your Phillips one looks awesome, do you have a link to the one you have installed? I have found some of these panels on eBay but none that are "named" brands.

Hi mate Welcome aboard, I am also new on here 😁 I get alot of my audio install Accessories from TEMU, the facia to suit 10.1" Android you can get in Silver or Black..it was $40 NZD delivered. The Philip's Andriod unit I purchased second hand here in NZ. Part number is CID6680/93. I am unsure if these can still be purchased and I believe there is a Chinese knock off of the Android. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I changed it over for another, but had to steal that to run behind the glove box because my android unit has HDMI output, the rear screen has RCA and I needed 5v USB to run the convertor. Just waiting for my third socket to arrive 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
