Wireless Charging mod for 2015-2017 TLX?

Hey All,

Has anyone been able to add/mod the little tray in the TLX 2015-2017 to add in wireless charging? I can't seem to find even a simple pad that would connect to the cigarette port online.

Vehicle (2015 Tech TLX 2.4)

Any help is appreciated

Here is something I found that I may get since I just bought me a 2015 TLX today I'll have to check the dimensions of the tray on the interior of the car to see how this would fit.

If DIY, maybe less than $20

Just buy a wireless charger that has USB input and then get a USB car charger and plug it in there..

Brand motion has a wireless charging pad modification for the 2015 through 2017 Acura TLX I just recently done one on my 16 TLX it’s pretty easy to do is start at the same location as the 2019 a spec full up load pictures later it it is the Qi1210 model charger For this particular vehicle however I used the 1310 model.

Here is a photo of my wireless charging pad in my 2016 Acura TLX if you guys need the video description of how it’s done I can about that as well let me know and I’ll be sure to post it

Please send details, might just DIY while we're stuck in COVID lol. Is it fast charging? I know that was the issue with most of these mods.

I have yet to do this, I think you replied to the wrong post. I was asking the same question and didn't get a reply. Tbh I didn't even google, the brand of the charger that was posted, some thing 'motion'.

Im still interested in doing this , looks clean👌🏽.

That's a very good point. Has anyone found any good ones for this type of a mod?
