Has anyone set up a wireless charging thing for their JK? I was looking at the $200 set from 4wp, would like to know if anyone has used it or something similar

A wireless charging thing. Very specific.

Your phone has to be compatible with the wireless charging. Pretty cool feature over all. My brothers truck came with a little tray built into center console lid, in his new Chevy pickup. He just puts his iPhone X on the tray and it charges it.
I personally don’t really care for it neither my phone has that feature. If I had it I would use it though but for now a good old wire is sufficient enough.

I just use a USB to Lightning connector and toss the phone in the center console. No reason to pick it up while driving

Idk if I’d pay $200.00 to add that to a Jeep, though.

I wouldn’t, it’s a Jeep, it’s suppose to be primitive [emoji854]. The one thing i did, I purchased the charger thing to plug into the lighter, the usb plug inside the console in the JK just doesn’t have enough juice, charges really f’ing slow. Much faster when using the lighter plug. It’s weird because in my 2014 Cherokee the usb in the console chargers the phone much faster. Both Jeeps are same year.

That’s what I got for the JK

I use a pro-clip phone holder. They sell versions that hold the charging cord still so you can pop the phone down onto the power cord. They specifically say on their website that they don't offer wireless charging because it's not powerful enough to charge and run a navigation app at the same time. I use the plain jane holder and a lightning cord plugged into a USB adapter.
