    Hansshow F9 9 inch display with camera and air vents

    I appreciate your experience with the F9. I don't have the need for the Carplay and Android Auto as I see many others have had, but I do have a problem with the interaction between the Tesla center screen and the F9 screen. Specifically, the steering wheel right hand thumbwheel appears to...

    How to run cables through firewall of a 2022 Tesla model 3

    This is an old post, but I eventually passed a wire through one of the "nipples" on the Driver's side large rubber grommet, thereby staying away from the OEM factory wires. As I stated in another post, on the M3, the wire conduit is rather hidden on passenger side, compared to the driver's side...

    Can anyone confirm if hansshow carbon dash replacement fits 2023 M3 produced from Fremont?

    It does fit my 2023 M3 produced in Fremont, but I have noticed a strange "foggy/hazy" blemish on the corner of the passenger side of the dashboard (about one inch in diameter). I didn't notice this hazy patch on initial installation of my non-glossy CF replacement, but I may have missed it...

    Hansshow CF Dashboard replacement 23’ M3

    I see that your post was a while ago, but I have the carbon fiber replacement dashboard for my 2023 M3, and it fits my M3 manufactured in Fremont. It was just kind of expensive

    Hansshow F9 9 inch display with camera and air vents

    Finally, a decent instrument display for a car that should have had driver's an instrument display in the first place. I may not have installed all the Hansshow displays but probably most of them, and I have described my experiences with the many (perhaps too many) models before I stalled the...

    NEW Model 3 Highland review!

    I appreciate and agree with your calm and intuitive assessment of the situation, free from font text size psychoanalysis. This weekend I'll be running the new H6 video cable for the front bumper camera. It looks fantastic.

    NEW Model 3 Highland review!

    Dude???? Very impolite salutation. I'm not saying I dislike Tesla cars, but I would have preferred more obvious changes for something that was hyped so much. Is it so unreasonable to expect a front facing camera or a few safety features at minimal cost? I doubt if a few extra parts would...

    NEW Model 3 Highland review!

    Your responses to my comments are exceptionally detailed and thought provoking. It's the same car. It's the same car. It's the same car.

    NEW Model 3 Highland review!

    1.) Larger font is for emphasis, otherwise there wouldn't be available larger fonts on a forum. 2.) You got me on the Newton. That was a long time ago (but I'm still right about the little iPhones). 3.) I still maintain that the Highland Update is disappointing. Look at all the Chinese...

    NEW Model 3 Highland review!

    I've seen all the early Model 3 Highland "fluff" reviews from other countries, and I assume that the updated US version of the Model 3 is basically the same. They all say the same thing...... 50% of the parts are redesigned; therefore improved mileage; better aerodynamic design; new exciting...

    Hansshow 6.86" Mini dash display

    For the 2023 M3 vehicles it's no easy task to get through the firewall (misnomer - no heat from ICE). For all the older year cars, there are several holes and plugs to punch through. For 2023 all the holes are gone. There are two large grommets up under the dash. The one on the right (passenger...

    Model 3 Feature Requests for Refreshed model 3

    Thanks for your comment, and you may be correct about driving the vehicle for >6 months. Though it is nice to have not only the driver-centric speedometer but also to have the continuous tire pressure monitoring system (in direct view) in a car without a spare tire and no run-flat tires. I...

    Software updates stuck - car not drivable [self resolved after 1 hour]

    Note to Self: Don't start an OTA update and then go into the food store and buy ice cream. A quoted 25 minute update time turned out to be well over an hour. I called Tesla support to tell them that the car was undrivable. They only took a recorded complaint. Apparently, melting ice cream does...

    Model 3 Feature Requests for Refreshed model 3

    Thank you for your input. Everyone who has seen my driver-side instrument panel addition has given only positive comments. The screen resolution and color rendition match the OEM center display quite closely. Not one negative comment.
