    Blendmount radar mount doesn't work for model Y :(

    That shroud is in two pieces. The bigger section is like a “u” that wraps around. That long piece circled in blue is a thin piece of plastic coming down from the mirror mount. I think that is what is in the way. Good luck.

    Blendmount radar mount doesn't work for model Y :(

    See second pic in post #20. Where I circled in blue is what needs a clean cut I believe and it should work no problem. I attacked it the wrong way, but got it to work.

    Blendmount radar mount doesn't work for model Y :(

    OK. No criticism on my Dremel skills. I simply didn’t care for perfection as it was hidden and it is a leased car. As you can see in the last pic (where I circled the area) is that the small shroud really isn’t the problem. However, it worked for me because it allowed some additional play...

    Blendmount radar mount doesn't work for model Y :(

    I will attempt to take a picture and upload. I just took off the plastic shroud and shaved it down a quarter inch to allow more play for the plastic piece coming down the center for the mirror arm. I lease my Tesla’s so I would say that I spent a lot of time trying to clean up my Dremel work...

    Radar detector hard wire help?

    I successfully installed the Model 3 BlendMount in my Model Y last weekend. Small amount of dremel work to the mirror trim piece, but well worth it.

    I took your advice and got out the Dremel. Successfully got the Model 3 BlendMount into my Model Y. Very happy. Thanks to all for their comments in this thread.

    Any movers from model s to model y. Anything you regret?

    I think the performance suspension is lowered, but unsure if stiffer. Honestly. I would not have gotten performance had the $2,000 0-60 upgrade been available. I had enhanced autopilot on the 2017 model S, but did not get FSD on the Y.

    Any movers from model s to model y. Anything you regret?

    New Model Y Performance owner (50 miles) coming from 2017 Model S and previously 2014 Model S. Agree with all of the above comments. The computer in the Y is way better than my 2017 S. Auto wipers are actually way, way better. Auto high beams fine. Speed of computer and modem are much...

    Feedback on pending X P100DL inventory deal

    As an FYI, I am walking away from this and sticking with. Model S. It will be back in inventory immediately I assume. If someone wants the VIN, let me know.

    Feedback on pending X P100DL inventory deal

    This one was on tesla’s Site. As it gets closer to quarter end I have noticed that they are dropping more and more cars on there for public view. My sales guy.was watching, too.

    Feedback on pending X P100DL inventory deal

    Agreed without the $1,200 destination. I did the same thing to kind of test the deal. Certainly appreciate other thoughts.

    Feedback on pending X P100DL inventory deal

    Hello all. Longer time member, but infrequent posted. Coming out of my 3 year Model S P85 lease. Came across this today and went with a deposit. Thoughts? Model X P100D - demo - about 4,700 miles - June 2017 build date I believe. Note that I am leasing, so I don’t care about the high...

    Knoxville supercharger - where

    Guys - I decided not to risk it. The more I modeled this with EVTripplanner the more riskey it seemed. The temps tomorrow morning are sub 30. That is pushing. My rated miles to 250. I have a P85 with two years of degradation, so I only get about 258 with full charge. Too close for me...
