A wireless charging pad is my next project. Do you have info on your setup or a reference you used?
I used the Induktiv charger, it was very very straight forward, no real DIY needed esp if you've already yanked out the center console once. Just unscrew the cigarette lighter, screw in the tray, plug it in and done.
