Default Tuff rok alternative

Looking for anyone who makes something similar to their rear passenger power outlet that replaces the rear ashtray.

Not a fan of tufrok prices or reputation and hoping someone else makes something similar.

Was thinking of buying the lr3 power panel

Saw in a couple recent threads poor quality missing parts and complete absence of support or customer service if any problems. Several people chimed in with similar experiences

Anyone want to partner up and design some DIY versions of what Tuff Roks is selling?
We could easily 3d print the plastics that hold the USB ports. Would just take some work in designing the wiring for the 12v electrical system and splitting that out into 2.1a and 1.0a charging circuits.

Abran makes a switch panel for the LR3 as well.

Yeah Abran offers several configs, but it does differ from Tuff Rok’s.

Just found several
similar types on Amazon similar types on Amazon
. Obviously they wouldn't mount as well as the tuff rock but the price is a lot better, huh?
