Hey, sorry I never replied. Decked was actually really quick, about 7 days after ordering it was shipped. Hopefully, you got yours!
No prob. Got mine and installed. Thanks.
Looking forward to how you do the Mod. I put the same system in my Trailhunter and have to Mod the t to get access to the compressor. I haven’t done it yet because I have a compressor to use for now. But I want to see how people come up with new ideas.This is specifically for the 24 Tacoma with Power Bed Accessory. The instructions included have you buy some magnets and glue to modify the cover to the USB ports so I can access them. The deck has a cut-out on the right side so the plug door can open freely with no issue or modification.
I read Decked's instructions for modifying the USB port, and it looks relatively simple, but I won't know until I start taking everything apart. I'll capture some photos and post my thoughts.
Does it seem like it'll be easy to mod for the compressor? My truck is about to arrive and I have a system waiting for it, but I really don't want to cover my compressor as I need access to it.Looking forward to how you do the Mod.

@OHTacoCamper Did you have to disconnect and reconnect the battery when unplugging and plugging back in the charging port?Hi all, Happy 4th! I hope you're having a good one.
I completed the USB/12V charger cover mod for the Decked system and wanted to just share some pictures. Overall pretty simple and straight forward process. I used a small hack saw to cut the cover, but think a Dremel Wheel would be a better tool. I also used 4 magnets on the cover instead of the 3 recommended by the instructions. Finally, I swapped out the D-ring tie downs with the Charvonia Designs ones, and swapped the handle on the drawer to black, to keep my "blacked out" theme going.
No, I did not disconnect the battery. I simply unplugged and plugged the charging port back in after making the modifications.
hey there- appreciate all the info you’ve posted.The lid flipping that came with the Decked instructions felt a little too invasive for my taste, did this instead:
The air hose did not clear, the angle interfered with the connector. removing and altering the factory box to accommodate a swivel connector was a pretty extensive mod. The instructions that came with the Decked system for flipping the lid works for a power accessory configuration but absolutely does not take into account the Trailhunter compressor setup, it is a lot more complex. I posted a series of photos on TW, but here's a couple to give you an idea:
