Hi, I read the user manual and it says that there is a usb cable adapter inside the front pocket. However I do not see any cable inside that front pocket. Is this usb cable adapter only included in tech package?

The front USB connection is only found on the base model 2016's (as well as the 2013-15 models)

Theres still a hole in the plastic behind the front pocket area (behind the rubber insert), but there no connection there as they moved it to inside the elbow-rest area.



In theory you could wire up a USB hub/spitter and make it work by running a cable out the 'secret' front location, might be a clever way to charge more devises.

That was the worst possible location to have the plug, and I'm glad they moved it back to the center console. That tiny little spot up front was too jammed to fit anything in it, and with USB in use could only be left wide open.

On my Premium 2016 model now, the USB is plugged inside the center and only hangs out enough under the closed console to attach my phone when in the car.

As above, the front small compartment USB is still only on base model ILX's with the old style radio system from 2013-2015 model cars.
