Ash tray and storage unit
Ok is it possible to switch out someone’s ashtray console for my storage unit console? Basically where everyone says they have a ash tray and lighter I have basically the same thing just that instead of the lighter it’s a car charging port and instead of a ash tray it’s just space

If I understand you correctly, I don't think you can. I remember the ashtray and lighter are part of the center piece that lifts out. The entire piece goes from the ash tray part all the way down to the heated seat controls.
I checked the DIY shift **** thread and pics seem to support my memory.

Ok wouldn’t I be able to take out the whole compartment and insert the lighter/ashtray one ? My compartment has a power outlet where the lighter supposed to be and where the ashtray suppose to be it’s empty but looks like the same thing

??? you have a 12V power outlet ... that a cig lighter plugs into? just buy a cig lighter if that's what you're looking for.
I was thinking the same....tis almost as if he has one of these plugged into the lighter socket 
..and just needs to take it out and put in the old lighter....maybe he just bought the car and the previous owner left it in...
anyways OP, post a picture and I'm sure someone will help real quick

go for it man, I've had one for a while and its very nice as it looks integrated and you can close the lid when not in use (which is never)... I use one that supports quick charging though...only a few bucks more...this one I think
