I installed a Bluetooth Kenwood radio to keep in touch with family easier and listen to my music while driving through the mountains.
I also added cupholders in the center console. I built them based off a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee backlit cupholder assembly and moved the accessory power from the dash to the center console. It has 2 USB 3.0 outlets/voltmeter and a normal acc outlet for a plug. The kit also came with a switchable outlet for 1-USB and 1-USB-C outlet. I wasn't real happy with the way the carbon wrap came out, so there will likely be a version 2.0 in the future. For now, it serves it's purpose well.
USBs can be covered and voltmeter turned off.
2 USB 3.0 outlets and 1 regular accessory outlet (under the eject button).

How was the Hot Rod Power Tour? That must have been a lot of fun!
BTW, I like the light up cup holder you made.
I don't have much room for storage in my roadster, so every inch of space is worth it's weight in gold!
I couldn't give up my console space, so I made one to fit in the console storage bin.
It's not fancy but it works for long rides. I remove it when I don't need it.
