Hi all want to add wireless phone charging to 2021 Kamiq SEL .
Does anyone know official part number or good aftermarket solution ?
Wireless phone charging
Hi All,
I have a similar query. This is my first Skoda and so far I'm loving it.
My only frustration is that even though the wireless CarPlay is great, it drains the battery and 2 usb-c ports are a bit limiting. I've tried 2 usb-c hubs and so far they work for charging but none work for music so I am assuming they are transferring power but not data.
The wireless chargers I've seen have nothing to hold the phone in place so even if I plug it into the 12v socket and put the charger in the centre compartment, I'd imagine it would slide about while driving defeating the purpose.
Like @Scurdie asked though if I could get a part number I could try and fit it or get it to a garage but I'd also take a look at any aftermarket solutions please as maybe I'm overlooking something simple?

I have Android, running A10. I found that the first cables I used were cr@p, and only charged but were poor for connection and data transfer. I purchased a more expensive cable, and bingo! great for transfer, maps, A Auto, and everything else. Still doesn't solve the wireless charging problem though.
My mate has a Ford . He has purchased a wireless charging unit, taken the little cubby place at the bottom of the dash out ( Like the one in ours), and glued it in under the plastic. He wired it into the 12v plug at the side of it ( On his car the 12v goes off when the ignition is turned off). It works well as the phone doesn't seem to slide about.
