Ohh I wonder (going by the photo) if that is just a case with a magnetic ring stuck on it?
If so it would be a pass from me. Dont want any metal pubes hanging around in my pocket thank you very much…

I just checked my phone and maybe the heating while charging has terraformed the case as it now sits flush…
Either that or someone has stolen the card out of it… pin to drive ftw

I have a better idea, get yourself microchipped with the key card info.

I think I saw a MKBGD review once of a car which had facial recognition cameras in the b pillar which probably sounded like a good idea but wasn’t practical especially in the snow or rain, or at night..

That phone case would be of interest to me. I would use it not for the tesla key card but my licence. ACT is still in the dark ages and requires a physical licence. I would like a case that holds that and is mag safe and is still compatible wiht my home wireless chargers (and the tesla charger for that matter)

I used to laugh when I saw other brand EVs have separate caps over the AC and DC charge sockets but as winter approaches I can see the method in the madness.
I guess I thought that way because all the YouTube videos showed people removing both caps as they were DC charging.

I’d say 99% of my charging is AC at home.

Has anyone seen a cover for the DC section of the charging socket that won’t interfere with the AC socket or the lid closing?

Can any of you guys who have have EVs for a while see any benefit in keeping the rain and pubes out of the DC pins?

Maybe something like this but cut it into 2 pieces if it stays in there.
Might be able to 3d print something but these rubber ones might seal better.
Not sure if keeping moisture in there is a good idea tho as keeping it open might let it dry out.

GB/T charging standard that seems to be only deployed in China.

In your experience is it something worthwhile? Or is it just another newbie idea thing I keep coming up with (overthinking)

I personally wouldn’t bother. From time to time I hose out my charging port. Not whilst charging though! ️️

With the performance version being unveiled I’m hoping a company out there might make an 18” wheel cover for the photons that resembles the 20” warp wheels.

On another note, does anyone know if front bumpers come pre-painted? Asking for a friend who loves the performance front bumper.

So when are they arriving?

Has anyone seen/have snap window shades for the rear windows? Just got the windows tinted which helps, but would like to keep the direct sunlight off our newborn.

They don’t sell them because of the frameless windows. But they have some coming out for the model Y soon so I would assume they will adapt them to the model 3 afterwards.
