Description

QI Wireless Charging Mod for 2012 Subaru STI

Built around [this wireless charging pad](https://www.amazon.com/UUMAO-Wireless-Motherboard-high-Power-Transmitter/dp/B09B39Z3J1/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8).

Application Notes:
For all printed parts, use a high temp plastic such as PETG - cars get hot.
Device is secured in place by wedges that fit onto the plastic ribbing of the original Subaru center console part (part 1 to print). These are then glued in place using PETG compatible glue such as [acrylic glue](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003HNFLMY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s03?ie=UTF8&th=1).

Foam tape is stuck to the magnetic back of the charging module to apply outward pressure from frame against back of charge mat.

Box containing the electronics can be screwed together. 2mm self tapping screws can be screwed through the lid, holes in the PCB and into the lower case half. Ensure the blue LED is positioned in the hole and wires tucked behind circuit board. The box containing electronics can then be folded down and glued on top of the ladder frame assembly.

If car is used in a humid climate, it is recommended to spray
circuit board with electronics conformal coating. Or alternatively
use a compatible silicone to seal up the wire passthrough gap.

Once installing in car, you can access the 12v supply for the cigarette lighter (accessory) power. It is located behind the radio bezel / HVAC controls. You can use wire splice connectors to tap into the Yellow/Green and Black wires on the 4 pin connector (i24 in service manual). It is clipped into the dash plastic center immediately behind the HVAC module. Once disconnected, I routed the wires down under the cigarette lighter to have space to install the splice connectors. Wrap everything in tape and install optionally a disconnect (e.g. bullet connectors) to be able to take out the center console in future easily.

Print price estimates

Planning prices for one print, not a final quote. Defaults use a size allowance inferred from the part name, not a measured or sliced model. Filament suitability must be confirmed.

FilamentUSD / printApplication notes
PLA$28.50Indoor prototypes; not a default material for hot vehicle interiors.
PETG$29.00General-purpose candidate; heat and creep need review.
ASA$32.50Candidate for UV exposure; verify temperature and geometry.
ABS$31.50Enclosed printing; review application and dimensions.
TPU$37.50Flexible designs only; not a substitute for rigid materials.
Nylon$37.50Moisture, tolerances and application require review.
PA-CF$42.50Filled nylon; abrasive filament and fit need review.
Pricing assumptions and exclusions

USD: ($6 setup + $3 finishing + filament weight × assumed spool cost × 1.25 waste allowance + print hours × $2.50 × material time factor) ÷ 0.65. Rounded up to the next $0.50.

Assumed spool costs per kg: PLA $25, PETG $30, ASA $40, ABS $30, TPU $45, Nylon $65, PA-CF $95. Time factors: PLA/PETG 1.0, ASA/ABS 1.2, TPU 1.6, Nylon 1.4, PA-CF 1.5. These are proposed shop rates, not measured production costs.

Design work, test fitting, hardware, shipping and tax are additional where needed. Multi-file sets may need several prints. Use actual sliced weight and time when available. Final pricing is confirmed in writing.
