    Can I stuff acoustic foam behind the door speakers?

    I put the foam from my Soundskins speaker rings behind the 8" midbass in my doors.

    Aftermarket Subwoofer in 22 M3P

    I've installed a small amp (400wrms) to the OEM sub in a '22 RWD (16v car) without any issues in the car. The amp seems to be staying on all the time but that's something that can be worked on at a later date. I have a '21 Performance with a 3800wrms setup without adding a second battery. The...

    proper sub woofer disconnect

    It depends on what wiring is going to be disconnected. If it's an all in one unit, you need to protect the bare wires since one should be power and one should be ground and will make a bright and brief light show if they touch. If the amp is to remain in the car and only the sub/enclosure is to...

    12 volt battery dies without warning

    Not all 51R's will fit. I have an XS Power that won't fit. It's just slightly too big in all dimensions. Make sure that you verify that the replacement will fit.

    A quick comparison Focal ISU200 vs Hertz MPK165.3 Woofers

    Having used a few sets of Focal's in the past (not the ISU200) and competing with Hertz Mille's in my Accord, I would expect the Hertz to sound better than the Focal's. In my opinion, using the largest driver in the door is the best way to get the best sound up front that you can, hence the...

    Loud feedback noise with aftermarket amp.

    First thing that is suspect for me is the basic line output convertor. I would look into a quality version (like an Audio Control piece) and verify that the wiring you've used is the correct signal for the amp.

    Model 3 Subwoofer

    Since you've got the standard audio, it should be similar to what you get out of the midranges. I don't remember what I tested them to be, but it'll be fine for feeding most decent quality line output convertors.

    Alternative tire size for M3 20 inch wheels

    I put 255/35/20 on my M3P on Forgestar wheels. No problems with rubbing or interfering with any suspension parts.

    Trunk only opening halfway sometimes after 2022.8.3 install

    That stinks!! Please keep us informed of what happens. For what it's worth, my '21 M3P went to the local service center for the same issue before Tesla admitted to the software fault. They said they would not honor the warranty due to the "added weight of the sound deadening" that I added to my...

    2022 Model 3 Performance (premium audio) tips to 1300w 5 channel amp

    I put two Phoenix Gold Ti21600.5 amps in my '21 M3P. I did not install a second battery though it wouldn't hurt. I used the relay/resistor to make the car not respond negatively. I don't think you'll have any issues.

    Audio system looses bass or all sound, and strange clicking

    FWIW, My 2021 M3P with the premium audio (though all speakers are replaced, and aftermarket amps power them) does the same click but I seem to notice it happening when there is an audible indicator being generated by the computer (as in, a turn signal sound, or turning on or off of cruise...

    I only did the rear section.

    Model 3 subwoofer install.

    If I had to guess, I'd say the OEM sub box is about 0.3-0.5 cu ft, about what to be expected of an 8" driver. I was able to mount two amps and the relay/resistor in the spot where the OEM sub/amp used to reside.

    Tint level

    I put 50% on my windshield, 20% on the sides and back window, with 35% on the roof glass.
