Retro fit wireless phone charger

Hi folks

Did try to search the X1/2 forum but cant find an answer

Just bought the wife a new car (X1 2020 LCI) looking to add a wireless charger to it as thats the only thing missing from the spec that i would have added to the car, but was a used pre reg car so not factory order. So has anyone managed to fit the oem part to armrest? If so do you have required part numbers and how easy is it to do?

I have found a few of what i thought was an easy 2 min fix from aliexpress and the likes but the tray they all have is a LHD model and i need a RHD tray as its a UK car.

Would something like this work ? I know it's not ideal but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There's also a BMW version of the cupholder solution:

Also, if you're okay with putting the charger in the cubby below the armrest, this looks like a sleek solution:

I think OP has right hand drive, so the aliexpress link won't work (LHD only)
