Where did you route the power cord?

Roughly where the red line is (this is stock photo, btw)

Thanks; that path makes for a zero visibility cord, it seems.... yes?

There's no need to remove the screen. You should be able to gently lift the top part of the dash with a trim tool and slip the wire underneath if the it's thin enough. You can then run it across the left of the dash and route it around the driver's side door trim.

I know for a fact that the one I bought at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B19LGTF9?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details works--see the photo from my post above.

Excellent @vandy1981.. I love your solution!

I ordered the power cord you linked. I'm going to run off the cig. lighter outlet (Dec 2022 build) to be sure I like the unit, then will run your cable for a great no-show look.

I think you can see a bit of cord on the left-facing side of the dash when the door is open, but nothing is visible from the driver or passenger seats.

I don't know if the cord provided by EVsportline is thicker or shorter than the one I'm using, so you may be able to get by with their solution ?‍

That cord is for a fuse box connection, and not the 12v socket in the dash. It's also similar to the one @EV Sportline already provides. No need to buy another one - just use the routing @vandy1981 suggests - if you prefer that path over the one recommended.

Is the round USB-C cable portion of the EVsportline supplied power supply long enough to tuck under the full length of the dash pad using the over the top mounting path?

Not sure, as I didn't try it. Maybe DM @EV Sportline with the question?

Thanks...

I'll keep my Amazon order of that USB-C power supply, I can use it for the boat if I don't use it for the Rivian. For $15 it's worth having in any case.

our included power cord is plenty long enough to rout this way

Awesome! I hope you'll eventually offer your dash bracket with a ball mount that can be used with 3rd party phone cradles and devices. I don't think there are any other brackets like yours elsewhere.

Any chance of getting this by Christmas if we ordered on day 1?

@EV Sportline can you please provide an update on when you plan on shipping these out?
