    FS: Used Roadster LED taillights from Bespoke51/TransForged

    I purchased these back in 2019 and had them on my Roadster since then, but recently changed back to the original taillights. These worked well for most of the time, but recently I noticed some of the LEDs are not lighting any more. If anyone is interested in these in order to repair, use as...

    14 available, but actually 37 were?

    This weekend I stopped at the 40 unit Supercharger station in Baker, CA between Las Vegas and Los Angeles. As we were approaching the number of available units varied from about 14 to 16 available. When I pulled in, there were only 3 cars plugged in! Once I plugged in, there were 4. I went in...

    Roadster EVSE cable

    I have a near new 25' Tesla Roadster cable that came off an original Tesla Roadster High Power Wall Charger EVSE (made by Clipper Creek). At the time I needed to also charge another car that used a J1772 connector, so I changed the cable on the EVSE. Most of the time these are pretty beat up...

    Front louver opened and garbage went inside

    So, under the front bumper is a thin grille, and behind that grille are plastic louvers that open from time to time most likely depending on heat, cooling the batteries, something. Anyway, after a drive, I notice a piece of styrofoam stuck just behind the thin grille. I went to grab it with a...

    Burbank supercharger fake outage cone?

    I rarely use Burbank to charge because it's a terrible place always with a line, but when I have a 450 mile trip back home in the morning, I will go there. I noticed that when I pulled up there was a cone in front of charger 1A. Basically, everyone, including me, was ignoring it, assuming a cone...

    P100D (non-Ludicrous) performance?

    As discussed in some other threads, Tesla has a bunch of inventory Model S P100Ds for sale with Ludicrous disabled in order to price them $10K cheaper. Personally, moving from a 2012 P85 to a P100D is going to be a big difference already, so giving up the 0.3 - 0.4 second difference to 60 is...

    New color rumors (of facts) anyone?

    New color rumors (or facts) anyone? We have a white P85, and will be upgrading to a P85D soon - the only factor right now is color. If I'm getting a new Model S, I want to try a new color. However, at this point I see several blacks, whites, and a red. The grey and blue are basically black with...

    Teslas outnumbered! National Drive Electric Week Event, Sept 20, Cupertino, CA

    This is Silicon Valley, and I'm just surprised that the local-designed, local-built, best EV available is outnumbered over 3 to 1! Take a look on the link below - and as of now (about 1pm on Sept 16th) there are 183 Nissan Leafs registered for the event and only 61 Teslas (51 Model S, 10...

    Set of OEM cast wheels and Pirelli winter tires for sale. I just purchased my Roadster, and here in California have no need for a winter set of tires. They are not perfect - some little scratches here and there. I tried to take closeup pictures of the various marks, but if you stand a few...

    WTB: Roadster carbon fiber roof clear coat

    With some people preferring to use the soft top all the time, and others using the tinted plexiglass top, I figure there may be someone sitting on an original Tesla clear coat carbon fiber roof they are looking to sell. Let me know. Thanks.

    Exterior carbon fiber kit - 2.5 versus 2.0

    I'm looking at the exterior carbon fiber kit for a 2.5, and it's listed at the same $9000 price as the 2.0. However, the 2.0 has a rear diffuser included. The rear diffuser sells for $1600 separately. Shouldn't the 2.5 exterior kit be priced more like $7500 then? Has anyone purchased the 2.5...

    Menlo Park or Fremont?

    I'm located the same distance from both of these service centers, and have taken my Model S to Menlo Park in the past. However, does the Fremont center have faster access to parts and technical support? What about a Roadster? I just purchased a used one, and I want to get it's annual check...

    Electric Blue in SF Bay Area?

    I'm debating on purchasing an Electric Blue Roadster from another part of the country, but my wife has not seen the color in person. She is a "car person" also, and will be driving it just as much as I will. Does anyone have one that she could take a quick 5 minute look at? No need to drive it...

    Breakout Session descriptions?

    I see on the agenda several breakout sessions to select from, like any typical conference, however there is usually a paragraph detailing what the session will cover. I'm not clear on which ones I want to select. Are there short descriptions somewhere? From what I see, we select 1 of 4 in the...
