Good day and greetings from the Netherlands.I am here to learn from you guys and to present to you my idea's.Last week i added a smart modification to my Giulietta from 2011.I got an Samsung Galaxy Note 3 with Wireless charging receiver and bought also a transmitter.I dislike having a carholder for a phone in my beautiful Giulietta.So i started thinking about a smart modification. I have a 2din like the My2014 so i thought lets put my phone in the box above on the dashboard.But i always have my sunglasses and papers over there.So i thought lets try something else.(The result):
What did i do?I bought a small receiver for the Note 3 (You can probaly find one for your own phone, most phones have one right now. Iphone, Nokia, Samsung etc etc. Just google!)And i bought the Samsung QI wireless charging receiver pad:

The other end goes into a 12V plug with USB female (Later when i found out how to take apart the middle section of the interior i will make everything below the 12V kit with some solderThis whole gadget set works on Induction charging (like electric tooth brushes).I already had this kit with my phone and found out quite fast that the transmitter has the same diameters as the armrest floor.The steps i have taken to complete my beautiful secret of QI wireless charging is as followed:I took apart the Transmitter (the plastic was to thick and took a lot of space!)
I had some Styrene (type of plastic) plate still left in my house, it is 2mms thick.I used it to mount the induction kit on it (so it doesnt shift around in the armrest) and to make a top plate to put some adhesive felt on.I also ha
The difference between the OEM housage and my own
Fitting it into the armrest
The result!
Total costs: 15minuts (fitting it out to the correct size) and around 40 eurosGreetings! (and if someone wants to translate this to Italian, i would be thankfull!)
