I have the Lux package, and the charger in this trim is “all in one, however has the same dimensions, and uses the same 4 screws to fit it to the center piece that the blank uses in the base model center piece. Unfortunately there is no option to purchase just the “blank” (to then subsequently drill the 2.5” hole). That would have been ideal and would have a been a simple replacement.
The base part I bought (mentioned above) is is the complete piece, identical to that that was in the Wildtrack, the only difference being the blank piece in place of the wireless charger that was in the widtrack.
As has been mentioned before, it would be ideal if someone made just the blank piece, as that would screw into any trim level center piece/cover.
I am keeping the original center piece as a spare - in case the installed one gets damaged.
Long term, the hope is that there will one day be a better charger I can swap back in, primarily to be able to use the factory connector again (as that connector is just left zip tied under the blank and MagSafe I have installed to stop it rattling around).
Hope this clarifies all the questions
tldr: It’s currently an expensive proposition to install the MagSafe in a Lux package, because there is only one all-in-one part available to buy. All this, just to get the small blank piece to drill a hole in, and the whole part costs Circa 200 bucks!
One day someone will produce an appropriately sized (like OEM one), and functional, wireless charger that could fit a Lux trim level, using the power connector type used in the Lux package - that would sell like hot cakes. That being said the MagSafe I have installed looks slick
