If you were feeling gutsy, you could wire a cig. socket charger into the cradle connector, and connect that to the back of the cig. socket under the rear vents.

My dealer went the extra mile to try to figure out the problem. They even went back to AG to get an updated "Vehicle Order Sheet" to include the fact that I changed my TCU to the new version and had BT enabled in my car. They were thinking that there may be some need to update the BT options in the car's computers in case that was the reason that the power was not being provided from the TCU to the cradle out of the pins in the wiring schematic. In the end, power was available but not form the pins that the schematic specified as being hot. The fried the first cradle they plugged in.
It is certainly not plug and play on the early prodeuction models.
