I like it better that it's tucked away in the glovebox. It's on the centre console on the US BRZ's as well as the FR-S.

I created a thread hoping someone would fill it with a D.I.Y. swap, I want the center console one too.
Let me know if you plan on swapping it, or if you find one!

Same with me, I saw a DIY thread where you can access the port location from where the passenger side knee pad would go, would be good if we could relocate without opening the whole front dash.. I won't be attempting anything till next summer though but hopefully someone else is more eager!

I think there's one in the glovebox for BRZs as well. I don't have mine yet, so I can't confirm.

The BRZ has a line out and USB input located near the gear box. You need to remove the plastic cover in order to access it.

Call me crazy, but I don't want to drive with my phone in the glovebox, or with my glovebox open.

I can plug my phone in and have it in front of the cup holders with the USB port out in the open.
