    Model T Roof Rack Noise

    There is another good thread on here about this. A number of us found these Aerogrip strips to be a great solution. Keep in mind there are two noises from racks. One is the whistle and the other is just additional wind noise from the extra drag. You need something like a faring to reduce the...

    Model Y roof racks - AliExpress and others

    There is another thread about this, but if you have non-tesla bars that whistle, add these in addition by adhering them either just in front of or just behind the included rubber strip and it takes the whistle away! Works great for me! Reduce Roof Rack Wind Noise | Stop Crossbar Whistle |...

    Stopped Roof Rack Noise & Whistle

    Hey, cool idea!! I had Thule roof racks on my X5 they had this type of design and it was great. It kept our soft top paddle board bottom from getting all marred up without need a big foam block and they were nice and quiet. I'll have to look into these, thanks for sharing.

    Snippiness 2.0

    It is because 1) you obviously can’t read. 2) you are going around spreading negative reviews all over the place as a matter of fact WHEN YOU DIDNT EVEN USE THEM. What kind of ridiculous BS is that. I found these on a FB group and they were recommended by an admin. Probably about 100 or so...

    Auto-dimming side mirror design issue?

    There is 100% a change in the mirrors on the Y. We started with a model 3 and got these NXTGEN extended view blind spot mirrors. They fit perfectly like they came with the car and really have impressively clear glass. Then when the Y came my wife was not so comfortable vs the 3 and it is harder...

    Mine shipped next business day. They came quick but the company is like 80 miles away from me. With USPS who knows these days, that is how mine came I did the free shipping.

    Cool Tesla Model Y Blind Spot Mirrors!

    I still might try your placement of the little mirrors. I have my regular mirrors pushed out pretty far so I see out fairly far on the outer part. The area I don't see is along the car and right behind me in the regular mirror. It's nice being able to see the normal stuff, then right along and...

    Cool Tesla Model Y Blind Spot Mirrors!

    I had the wide angle mirrors on previous euro cars and I hated them.Took them off and sold them within a few days. It made the whole thing distorted and felt like I was on a bad ride looking over. I love the little ones from NXTGEN because I have one convex spot and I know where I'm looking and...

    Cool Tesla Model Y Blind Spot Mirrors!

    That's a really interesting placement, I might try it too!! This company makes mirrors like this for the BMW X3 and X5, which are on the bottom outer corner. With the taller SUVs you can see it gives a nice view of the lines curb for parking, towing, etc. On models for cars, it goes in the upper...

    Cool Tesla Model Y Blind Spot Mirrors!

    Our old Honda had a similar feature where there was cameras on the mirrors. When you turn the blinker on you saw the blindspot. I can't say I always use the blinker so it was not so useful 😁 In all serious it is nice always having this there. In case of emergency its a quick glance and not...

    Cool Tesla Model Y Blind Spot Mirrors!

    Wanted to share as I have not seen these being discussed here. We started with these on our 3 and loved them. When we got the Y, visibility was definitely tougher and my wife was especially a little uncomfortable with it. These mirrors are an exact fit on our 3. On the Y, the passenger side is...

    I clean mine in the garage with Chemical Guys Ecosmart wash. The stuff is awesome, you can wash, wax and dry faster than going to a wash or washing with water. Follow the online guides and zero swirls here!
