Tesla Model 3 Wireless / Induction (Qi) Charger Insert

thingiverse

Lots of Tesla enthusiasts have been talking about adding wireless induction charging capability to their new vehicles. Since Tesla doesn't offer an official solution, I took the initiative and created a simple fix! This insert fits perfectly under the rubber non-slip mat (included with the vehicle) in the upper center console of Model 3. To get started, remove the included USB cables (Lightning or mini USB) and place this insert under the mat. The cutouts are designed to fit a pair of "EnergyPad Qi wireless Charger Charging Pad"s, which can be ordered from Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075Q97P9T/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_U_x_wArxBb91F3E24. Next, insert the Qi charging pucks into the cutouts and run the USB cables through the channels in the backing of the console lid. Then, plug them into the USB ports underneath. If you want to prevent the insert from sliding around, I suggest placing a small bit of double-sided tape under each corner of this part. Good luck! Note: Aug 09, 2018 - I uploaded two new variants, as some newer Model 3s have two additional 'nubs' along the sides. One of these variants is specific for those who only want one wireless charger in their Model 3.
