2021 Y - Phone charger cable routing?

[Mourron]

What am I missing? With the new console in the model Y, there doesn't seem to be a path from the USB ports inside to the phone holders under the screen.

The manual doesn't help--it hasn't been updated for the new console. Any ideas?

The phone holders under the screen are wireless chargers, so you don't really need a cable.......but I do see the problem of how to charge a phone that's outside of the storage area (eg in your passenger's hands) without leaving the storage area door open. It would be nice if there was an escape route for the cable. I can only see an option to plug in your passengers' phones in the USB-C ports in the back.

Yeah, and of course none of our phones charge wirelessly!

Honestly, I rarely need to charge my phone in the car, so on the off chance I do, I guess the console will just stay open.

anyone have a solution to this? There are plenty of other use cases for cable routing to the usb port.
