Pretty sure this is going to stay, but I'm going to give it a couple days before drilling a hole in the insert and putting that back in. If for some reason I decide don't like this cord setup, I can just pull the cords out and replace the insert and the hole will be covered.
There are holes between the center console lid to route the cables from inside there to you phone. I don't understand any of these re-routes that drill into the cupholder area to pop the cables out.

The only USB ports that connect to Android Auto or Apple Carplay are the two that are in the front of the console. In the armrest, I can charge my phone, but cannot connect to Android Auto or Carplay. This is the case in my truck, and from what I understand, this is the case for all F150s with AA/Carplay. If my truck wasn't AA/Carplay enbabled, I would be charging in the armrest and would not have bothered with this re-route.

I did the reroute myself because I keep my phone in the left pocket since I have column shift. I think it's a great idea. Then I decided to upgrade my headunit to wireless Android and now my phone doesn't leave my pocket unless I need to charge it while in the truck.

Replaced the yellow license plate lamps with white LEDs. Major gripping PITA, I remembered I had some rubber coated work gloves and those gave me the grip to pull out those lamps from their sockets. Got a box of 10 LED non polarity bulbs for $6 from Amazon. Where else do the 194, 168, 175 bulb replacing LEDS fit? Owner’s manual isn’t clear, says to consult dealer for replacements!

Front side markers, but honestly, i think that's it for the F150, which is odd (also, don't put white ones in there (front side markers), they look stupid)
