Time to refine the details. New Toys Have Arrived!

There's 2 up front and 2 in the back. I miss the lighting from the Previous Charger which gave me something to aim for when putting a cup/can down in the dark without having to feel it into it's slot.

I was always going to swap in a heated/cooled cupholder that was in the top trim Avenger, and 300 I think. Hmm, maybe...

My 2011 had the heated and cooled cup holders, don't bother. they aren't warm enough or cold enough to notice any difference from ambient air in the vehicle. The vents blowing AC or heat would do a much better job. The lighting at least had it's use in the dark.

I REALLY love the side-open console! The back hinge was impossible for my right arm to reach into.

Not as helpful where I have a wife that needs to dig out the candies for kids or mail keys or a cable to charge her phone. I thought about making an adapter plate that would allow the existing hinge and an opposing or rear hinge so you can do both. I lack a 3D printer (currently gimme a year or two) and mostly I lack time. Maybe someone else wants to tackle that and has the resources to do so.

The only one that I liked better was the one that slid to the rear on a Pontiac G8 when Holden offered it as an option.

I had the heated and cool cup holders on my 2011 as far as I was concerned they work just fine. Later RJD

Hmm, something else I can think about. I do have one. I have the Creality K2 Plus (the biggest one, and enclosed) and I've made some stuff out of ABS which is good for automotive interior parts.

The more I think about it, I may have detached a cover at one point and just laid it on top.

I wish they would have brought back the heated and cool cup holders. They giveth and then taketh away nice things. Later RJD

I don't want to be involved in cracking the ECU etc. I'd prefer to keep mine all under warranty and off Dodge's naughty list. I just want to do things that are warrantable and fun or convenient, like managing the LIN bus to the active exhaust so that it can be "auto" like factory or manually keep it quiet or loud as you please. Disabling the Auto Start/Stop BS so it stays off until you really want it on. Would be nice to have other accent lighting that picks up the Attitude Adjustment lighting etc. Those kinds of things. Overall just another listener/publisher on the CAN busses or in the case of the adaptive exhaust it would be very man in the middle (on the LIN BUS) to keep the ECU happy while giving more control over those noise makers. Pioneer pointed out the extra "L" button on the SixPack cars that might be fun for Daytona owners to tie into feature of their choosing. Noticing some event and and then publishing an additional one on the same CAN bus is pretty simple stuff and could be as flexible as what is available on the BUS to let people customize things to their liking. Like noticing cruise control go on and put the car into ECO, or changing into "Auto" mode automatically enables ECO and disables Stop/Start etc. I'm not sure about the head unit is locked down but if I can I'd make an app for android auto and use whatever CAN busses it is participating on to do those things or just have other buttons/screens mounted to control things that make sense. Either way, it's all just going to be stuff I hope the community will work together on to create an overall rich customization environment while not getting into the way of the factory's intended and warrantable domain for customers to play in.

Looks like someone was watching Rob Dahm videos...
