    Tesla releases New Yoke

    Agreed. The texture felt cheap and fake. For a $100k car, I expected far better material. Mine started peeling before I even reached 10k miles!

    Peeling yoke replacement

    Bumping this thread up as a new yoke with stitching has been released. I don't know if this one will have the airbag as horn button, but I am set to get it installed on the 23rd of April. Has anyone else received the new yoke? Please post pics if you have.

    Found matching center caps for Arachnid wheels

    Just curious as to why you sold them (the spacers). Do you have any other pics of the car with them on?

    Sold Model S 21" Arachnid Wheels

    I LITERALLY just landed in south Florida from Buffalo Niagra! UGH! Anything wrong with the wheels (dents, bends, etc.)? How many miles on them? Thx in advance.

    Model S Refresh Roof Tint (Baking in the South Florida Sun lol)

    Yeah, I got the Llumar IRX 15 all around and 50 on the windshield. I'll probably go 50 on the roof at this point and call it a day. I have the same (IRX) on my F150 with 40 on the windshield and panoramic sunroof and the difference is night and day.

    Model S Refresh Roof Tint (Baking in the South Florida Sun lol)

    What year is your S? It's weird that the refresh loaner I had (built in 12/22) had a MUCH darker tinted roof than my 6/23 built S. As I said before, it was dark by the front visor and faded to a lighter smoked color towards the back and the SC said it was factory like that. Meanwhile, my...

    Model S Refresh Roof Tint (Baking in the South Florida Sun lol)

    I currently have a loaner that has a build date of 12/22 (refresh) and own a Model S w/ a build date of 6/23 that's in service at the moment. The roof on the 12/22 loaner is factory tinted like my old 2020 MSLR was so I feel like the heat rejection was noticeably different. I saw another post...

    Naples area tint/ppf recommendations?

    I ended up using Riding Clean Garage (RCG) in Pembroke Pines for the full XPEL PPF and ceramic coating. I'm still looking for the right company to do the roof. I have a loaner that has a build date of 12/22 (mine is 6/23) and the roof is factory tinted like my 2020 was. I wonder why the change?

    How to manually open the rear doors of a 22MS

    Holy sh*t! I didn’t know that. I’ve never sat in the backseat before, but I assumed (yes, i know, i know) the door release was in the same place as the front doors! I am glad you asked this, Doug! No wonder ppl have made a big stink about this in the news (being trapped in the car). I assumed...

    Looking for the best PPF and Tint Pricing - Boynton Beach, Florida

    I used RCG- Riding Clean Garage (RCG - Auto Detailing - Ceramic Coating Miramar, Fort Lauderdale )in Pembroke Pines. They did an excellent job. I used XPEL on bumper, hood, fenders, sideview mirrors, headlights, fogs and both rear quarter panels top to bottom and then did ceramic coating on top...

    Did my windshield tint lead to this crack?

    I had a crack and a few pits in my last MSLR...it cost $1200 w/ Safelite and OEM Tesla glass. The cameras recalibrate on their own so the extra charge was not needed to do so (2020 MSLR). I confirmed this w/ Tesla as well.

    Naples area tint/ppf recommendations?

    Anyone have recommendations for the roof (looking for a shop that's used to dealing w/ Tesla's and our interior suede-ish pieces that can get stuck in the tint).
