This is a quality piece, first of all. Honestly, I bought it for the looks. It really fits with the vehicle and adds to the overall interior appeal. I have a dash mount charger, so the only person that uses this one is my wife, but admittedly this one does connect more often than the OEM, and is more predictable.
As for the install, I got it done yesterday in less than 20 minutes. Their YT video really walks you through the process well. The only issue I had was with sliding the top plate over after you get it started towards the passenger side. The issue is that there are two adhesive circles under the top plate that are designed to adhere to the charging pucks. First time around I must have inadvertently pressed down in that area too early, so when trying to slide the top plate towards the driver side it gave a ton of resistance. Once I figured that out I pulled the top plate off and tried again.
I give it a 9/10. Only improvement I would've liked is a premium liner in the granola bowl. In it's current form it looks and feels a bit cheap. But I'm sure this is something they can address at some point. But the overall look speaks for itself. Go get one!
