Does anyone have a photo of that RJ-45 jack at the back of the center console?
My car is in the shop for a minor fender-bender until the end of the week, so I can't check myself, but I'm wondering if I can pop it out and replace it with a USB jack. It will be wired, of course, to the interface I'm going to install next week.
Okay, okay, call me impatient. If no one does, I guess I can wait . . .

Here you go.. I just chucked them up in a share site for you. They should be the last ones in the folder. The others were this weekend when i got the car..

That's perfect. Thanks!
Of course I still can't figure out if I can swap it for a USB jack just from the photo, so I guess I'll have to wait until I get the car back. It looks promising though, very promising!

you can't directly. It needs to be wired from the DB-25 jack in the back
jumper pins 1-3 for GND
4-8 for constant power
5-6 for switched power.
get a RJ-45 cable, A.K.A CAT-5 cable, cut off one end, find the wires,
you got power.
