Does anyone know where the stock inverter is on these trucks? I have a 2017 barebones XLT, and I’d like to add one so the wife can use her laptop in back on road trips, while also keeping it factory (if it’s too much of a pain).

Thanks!

Some of the stock ones are pretty wimpy on wattage, especially for running a laptop long hours it may not keep up. Be sure it’s got enough.

I’m sorry I don’t know more about where it is, but mine works great to keep my surface pro charged up all day every day.

Why not use the 12 V power points (cigarette lighter)?
I have a 2017 XLT and according to the owners manual it says they are rated for 180 watts.
the optional inverter is rated at 150 watts

I have one that plugs into the 12v outlet, it’s just big and obnoxious. Sounds like it’s not worth the trouble messing with the oem one.

Thanks for the input, all.

Intuitively, I figured the same but I would really like to find out for sure before I started figuring out how to
disassemble the console.
Thank you very kindly for your reply. I appreciate it.
