  • Design Model Fit 2 USB Ports in Centre Console

    Hi Guys

    My 2016 Facelift car came with only 1 USB port in centre console after lifting up lid , but some of the car pics I have seen some have 2
    is there any way to achieve this, can the single port be removed and swapped for 2, and what part numbers are required to do so ??

    MattG bought a usb hub and plugged multiple devices in. That would be the cheaper simpler option. MattG is it still working ok?

        Nice one! Saves ripping out everything to stick a 2nd usb in and all hidden under the armrest.

          Yup, tidy and cheap. Will add another drive when get chance, see if still works OK. Get a USB 3 thou not USB 2 like I did first time, works OK but very hit and miss.
          Indexes really fast, still prefer Google play thou, the Vauxhall voice control not as accurate, but USB is great for folder/artist search etc.

            I've just bought a USB 3 switched hub up to 4 ports and have got 2 working at the same time. The system shows the USB inputs as 'USB1' and 'USB2'. Result!

              I keep meaning to get one but I think I'll wait until the tray arrives from AliExpress. It's taking it's time....I ordered it the evening of the Rother Valley meeting.

                Mines not switched . Just scroll through with media button. No reason to think four won't work like this. Must try .

                  When I get around to it going to shorten cable on hub, and maybe fix phone charger to centre. Phone sits in slide cover perfectly. Also worth getting a very small flexible extension piece to plug into main USB port, take the bend out of hub cable and pressure off main port.

                    Ive got the double USB with voltmeter fitted next to the handbrake switch.

                    but ive also fitted a USB/AUX extension into the ashtray to save me from opening the armrest all the time.
