I am either horrible at searching or this is not available for a 5th gen. I have a couple blank switch covers on the left side of the dash in my 19 ORP. I figured this would be a readily available outlet for 2010 up, but I don't see shit. Really?

Ive had this installed in the blank to the right of the steering wheel for a year and a half and it works great. Was easy to wire into the accessory spot in the fuse box and fits in the spot without any modification.

If i remember correctly i dabbed some black nail polish on the led lights as they were a bit bright. They still light up the ports like a backlight but arent blinding frm the front.

LOL I found that an hour ago and hadn't posted here yet. Is the one to the right of the steering wheel the same dimensions as the left side?
 
I went with this one: USB Charger. Installed it on the left side of the steering wheel since that's where I have my Pro Clip magnetic phone mount.

I like it better because it has a 3.0 Quick Charge port. I wish you could turn the orange/blue lights off since I wired it to be on even when ignition is off, but I picked up a couple USB port rubber plugs and problem solved.

Glad you have had one working for a long while as 10% of the Amazon reviews were pretty bad and scared me off. I could really use a dual outlet for my dashcam and Garmin GPS
 
Long time lurker, first time poster. I picked up one of these, but am unsure the best approach to wire it in. 2017 TRDP. I am looking to install on the left side open slot - did you have to tap into other wires, or did you go to the fuse box?

I did try a search but didn't find anything that seemed to fit. If I'm wrong happy to be shown the proper link!

Thanks in advance.

Been using one of these also for a few years. Now issues.

Same. Electrical guru insight would be appreciated!
