Hi Alex,Here is another mounting option. O=E2=80=99Reilly=E2=80=99s sells a=
USB receptacle that comes with a mounting bracket tha allows you to mount =
it to the bottom of your cardboard glove box=C2=A0. It is pretty unobtrusiv=
e but still completely accessible and it was only about $15.00 as I remembe=
r. That way you don=E2=80=99t have to screw around with your switch plinth.=
If you are interested, I can send you a picture. I just wired it into the =
