I wouldn't need hardware to switch pins.

The existing drivers side port could be dedicated to AC only charging, which is what most people use everyday.


The passenger side port could be dedicated to DC only, which would be used less frequently.
That would mean you could only do AC charging with J1772 and only do DC with NACS. How is that any better than using the existing port with adapters?

I would rip out the J1772 on the drivers side too, I don't want J1772 at all and going forward I won't buy another EV without NACS.
