There is a square four pin connector with switched 12V power behind the carpet and foam on left side of the driver side foot well. The brown lead/the bottom right pin of the connector is +12V.

A significant factor affecting Model Y front leg room is the built up floor. In this still from Sandy Munro's Tesla Model Y tear-down you can see how thick the foam insert under the front floor mat is . This EPP foam raises the floor mat 3 inches over the floor pan and is up to 6 inches thick...

No just driver and me in the vehicle at the time. I think you are correct, the spring suspension has to be capable of the maximum load capacity plus trailer tongue weight. This makes it stiff with light loads like a pickup truck ride with no load in the bed. Dual rate springs can help or of...

I had the opportunity to drive 30 miles in a new Model Y 10xxx vin, AWD non-performance after driving the same route in the Model 3. There was definitely a notable increase in rear seat ride stiffness compared to the 3. Not bad but noticeably stiff, the 19 inch tires were at 42psi all around...

It is somewhat buried in the notes but if you have the FSD stop light and stop sign turned on you are limited to the actual speed limit, not speed limit +5mph.

Just had a look under the cover of a newly delivered Model Y, 10xxx vin, AWD non-performance. It looks like the heat-pump has received a sound wrap not the full hard encapsulation of the Model 3 but some soft foam. There was no ability to pull the frunk tub so the angle/picture is a little limited.

I had the opportunity to drive 30 miles in my Model 3 to pickup a new Model Y 10xxx vin, AWD non-performance. When we drove back the same route in the Model Y the Y definitely seemed quieter. Listening carefully the main sources of noise below 70 mph were road noise coming from the back of the...

Could you measure the hatch dimensions height, width and diagonal opening when you have a chance please?

I was able to replicate this clunk several times backing up and pulling forward on a hill while turning slightly. It sounds like the oil canning sound from the battery pack heard when supercharging or hard driving when the battery heats up. In the heating/charging case it seems to be due to...

Those look very nice! Did you purchase new TPMS sensors with them and did they require any spacer rings?

The seat height above the cabin floor is approximately 10 inches in its highest position about 1 inch lower than the Model S Next Generation seat at its maximum height. The measurement is a bit tricky as the footwell on the 3 drops down as you go forward while on the Model S it is flat.

A few observations having put over 110k miles on air suspension and now about 1500 with out. 1. Over 3 years I never had any mechanical issues. 2. The air compressor is one of the few sources of noise on an otherwise almost silent car. 3. Air springs are more progressive and give a smother...

The Hella looks almost identical to the existing horns and could probably be a direct replacement on the existing mounts. There is quite a bit of room up front there to fit in the air trumpets as well but they would require a more elaborate installation.
