    Vendor My Tesla Remote - A 3rd party remote that doesn't ask for your credentials

    Just install the app on a "family apple watch" so no iphone app. Functionally works great as i only want access when NEAR the car. ie your family member cannot mess around with the car if they are not physically near it. some feedback: the buttons to unlock, open trunk etc are too small as...

    Vendor Retractable Roof Sunshade is on Sale!

    Just installed with the 'seam repair kit'. It does help to keep the corners 'square', but the overall fit is certainly not perfect. It doesn't follow the curves exactly so there will be light gaps. It does boggle the mind why they couldn't have adjusted the manufacturing template to fill the...

    any REAL leather DIY seat covers (airbag safe)

    nothing so far, replacing vinyl seats with a vinyl cover seems crazy to me. At this point, due to cost, any no-name company claiming "real animal leather" is likely total BS

    Vendor Retractable Roof Sunshade is on Sale!

    which fabric glue is availble to fix the issue? superglue is going to make fabric brittle and I doubt will hold long term. 3M VHB tape prob won't stick well to fabric. How about hot glue gun? But yeah, this company has burnt all the preorder folks. I just got mine and it's missing a clip, they...

    ONR - I'm a believer now

    for the paranoid, use 1 towel per panel. towel can be folded to have 8 clean sides. ie very low chance of cross contamination/swirls

    Vendor Retractable Roof Sunshade is on Sale!

    The company itself is fairly legit but I think its your typical overseas company with 0 customer service. Amazon direct listing shows $400 (after coupon) so its makes sense from $$ wise to make those who paid $250 to wait. ie F.U we have your money. Going to give it another week before passing...

    Vendor Retractable Roof Sunshade is on Sale!

    There was a claim that the heat gets trapped and caused a crack. V1.0 has been out for a while and not hearing any widespread issues

    Vendor Best 5 Ways to Transform Your Teslas Interior

    want to confirm, the seat covers are just vinyl right? I assume they are not natural animal leather, aka "genuine leather."

    Model Y DIY Xpel Ultimate PPF

    personal experience with the bumper: - needs 2 ppl. one to keep stretched, one to tack down at the same time - dust control, floor must be immaculate - use the slip solution as a form of dust control. spray liberally to slide dust away - be familiar with the pressure needed on squeegee, too...

    What is your take on installing a 4K dashcam?

    Is there zero risk of 12V Battery drain with a dashcam (parked with sentry)? Tesla monitors and keeps it topped up to avoid this issue? It seems populare choices are blackvue, viofo a139pro and thinkware U3000.

    Can someone please help confirm if these panel gaps are fine?

    no, those videos are simply turning the rubber stops. Any human can do this. Adjusting a gap (which cannot be resolved by the rubber stops) involves loosening the actual bolts. If you have gaps, first thing to do is paper test (to check rubber stop clearance) then see if adjusting stops help...

    Can someone please help confirm if these panel gaps are fine?

    People have mentioned its 'easy' to adjust the bolts for the hatch, but I've yet to see any youtube video with someone 'actually' doing it. The Tesla service video talks about it and makes it sound easy. I can imagine a comedy of errors if you havent seen it done before

    I tried Tesbros DIY PPF - here’s my thoughts

    pros will clean the panel with 90% alcohol AND also ensure there is 1-2mm gap from any edge
