Z2/Z3 magnetic charger compatible with Z3C?

Thailand just got the Z3C this past week and I bought one today.  There are no true "Sony Stores," but I bought it in a Sony-licensed store and asked about a magnetic charger, as I can see it getting old real fast to keep flipping open the charger cover for the USB charger.  They said Z2 mag charger was compatible with Z3, but not with Z3C.  They didn't have one in stock, but plan to get some "RSN."

If the Z2/Z3 mag charger is NOT compatible, would a Z1C mag charger be compatible?

Also, are there any rubber "bumpers" like for the iPhones?  I'm upgrading from an iPhone4, and really liked having the rubber bumper to protect the phone when laying it on a hard surface, especially if I slip and drop it.  I'd prefer a "bumper" rather than a "case," but a case would be Plan B.  Couldn't find any shops with a Z3C-compatible case yet, but I'm sure it won't be long.  BUT... any rubber bumpers for the Z3C?

Cord from DK31 has orientation frames on pins. If you inspect them closely they are not identical. You can't connect it otherwise even when used outside the dock.

As for cable itself it is the same cable and connector for Z1, Z1C, Z2, Z2 Tablet, Z3, Z3C, Z3 Tablet.

I'm using it for Z1, Z1C and Z2 Tablet.

You can just buy DK31, remove two screws from the bottom, remove cable and use it for yours Z2 and Z3C.

Please @SergioPL. Lay out photo DK31 unassembled.
