Wireless charger issues

Hello guys, I am preparing to install a wireless charger, like factory installed style, did someone ever installed this before? Does it support iPhone 8? Do you have some recommendations? Thank you very much in advance.

As long as it's a Qi standard charger then it will work.

I do like this but there are couple of issues. One it charges really slow and the other you can’t have a thick phone case. If you do the phone will not slide back far enough to get it charging.
