Wireless charging option aftermarket for G20?

This may have be answered elsewhere...but....just ordered a new G20 330i xDrive. I opted against the wireless charging, just felt $500 option was way too much for a feature I could probably find another solution for at a lower price

Any suggestions for a good wireless charging pad that sits well in the current phone slot on the 330i G20? Or an after-market part that people found works well?

Hey

I bought this from amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

And got my hands on this cable:

It works perfectly, I taped the charger with some double sided tape.

Best!

That's a great idea!
Any pics of the final result?

That USB 2.0 port is low wattage though. The USB C ports are the higher "fast charge" capable ports.

The plastic inlay has a sloped surface which might prevent the charger laying flat
Did you have to remove the plastic inlay to place the charger?
