I'm wanting to add a 12 volt outlet inside the 40/20/40 flip up console lid to charge cell phones etc. Has anyone done this? I'm looking for ideas -
Thanks all!

It looks like you could just knock the existing hole out and install one from a GM donor vehicle easy enough. You could just run it direct to battery with an inline fuse - or run it to the fuse block, but I'd still install an inline fuse behind the outlet.

I thought about it but havnt done anything, there is a plug inside my console..I think you might be able to punch it out..let me check, Its pretty solid, I am not sure it it comes out or not...but running the lines would be easy.

Number9,

I don't see the "punch out" you are referring to. Where is it supposed to be? Maybe I'm just blind. I'm going to pull outside the garage and look in the sunlight...
Thanks!
