    Replacing Rearview Mirror?

    Fwiw, I replaced mine with a one of these microMIRROR — InoKinetic I still have the original, which I always found excessively huge. I admit the micro mirror is a bit on the small side, it just barely covers the headrest-headrest view, but what more could you want? There are other options from...

    Charging the Roadster

    I glanced at your debug photos, while not an expert, I don't see anything that makes me think you have a bad cell or bad brick. The yellow cable is somewhat infamous for failing, specifically the GCFI module which is part of the plug that goes into the wall. If you press the buttons on it does...

    Do I risk bending my trunk panel if the right side won't latch?

    A decent painters tape is exactly what I was going to suggest.

    Console/IPod connector

    That's a USB-A socket (1.1 or 2.0), as you'd find on a motherboard for laptop. It just happens to be at the end of an extension cable. That is almost certainly where the iPod connector for the dock would have plugged in.

    How to turn off the “Maintenance Service Required” message

    Tap on a blank part of the screen in the car 5 times, enter the pin (people are weird about posting it here, so I'll respect that). Assuming you want to reset the service reminder: Once in the Diagnostic Menu, press on "Controls". Then, click once on "Update Service Dist.". Now, it will be...

    Butterfly Doors for Roadster

    I don't know why you'd want to, but my understanding is the doors are the same as a Lotus Elise S2, do any of those kits should just work.

    Least expensive way to ship wheels?

    Weirdly, I got a nasty up charge from UPS for doing that. They indicated the item was improperly packed. I suspect TireRack has some kind of special agreement with UPS...

    Least expensive way to ship wheels?

    If you don't care about speed, you should be able to use Greyhound/Traiways. You'll have to have someone pack them, and drop them at the bus station, then pick them up from a bus station. I've moved large car parts that way before, its slow (and takes an unpredictable amount of time) but it is...

    400v Controller upgrade - GS Technology

    I'd also be interested in a group buy, assuming that ends up being a thing.

    Caution - Annual Service - Car power-down - GPS issue

    Happy I could help, glad it worked out for you. Not that I think anyone particularly cares, but there are three ways to deal with the problem: Right click on SNSRXCFG_330 and select "Run as Administrator" (have to do this every time) Right click on SNSRXCFG_330, select Properties, select the...

    Caution - Annual Service - Car power-down - GPS issue

    You can also cheat and run the updater in an XP VM with the serial port passed through, which is what I did to grab that log from PortMon. I definitely had some weirdness under W10 if I didn't run SNSRXCFG_330 as Admin. I tested again to be sure, if you don't run SNSRXCFG_330 as admin...

    Caution - Annual Service - Car power-down - GPS issue

    Yup. I've more or less confirmed the above with Portmon. The command that swaps it into update mode appears to be "$PGRMO,,G" (transaction 2459), after that the system swaps into what looks like Garmin's binary protocol. Some traffic goes back and forth, and then it up bauds to 115200 (TR#...

    Caution - Annual Service - Car power-down - GPS issue

    Let me do some testing with the spare unit I have, I'll update later tonight. What I believe should happen is: SNSRXCFG_330 connects at 4800 Commands the unit into update mode Requests the location of the update Requests the location of the update app Starts the update app with the update file...
