    Model S/X dashboard screws black?

    Anyone know where I can find the dashboard fastener screws that Tesla uses on the vehicle? I was wanting to order some online, can anyone point me to where I can find some?

    Wiki FSD’s Earliest Adopters Still Waiting

    how did Tesla become aware that you had the right cameras, I had a helluva time even getting my Tesla service center to even recognize which cameras I had, much less upgraded. Once you upgraded yourself, did you notify Tesla so they could update their records and report the change to your vehicle?

    Wiki FSD’s Earliest Adopters Still Waiting

    Its interesting the randomness of how service handles the camera upgradesm. It does make you wonder. I pestered them at least 3 times. I got the MCU2 upgrade almost 2 years ago now.

    New car tint revealed a scratch in between the panes of glass - should Tesla pay for re-tint after replacing the glass??

    I don’t think there’s anyway Tesla is gonna pay for that but you can certainly try

    Yep, I checked. I was following this thread for a while and found all the people who initialy got setup with appointments, only to find out the wrong parts were supplied for installation.....thanks man!!

    Wiki FSD’s Earliest Adopters Still Waiting

    So, i finally got an unexpected message saying I was "entitled" to the complimentary camera upgrade.........I was a little bit surprised because about 3 months ago i asked 2 different "in the know" service guys at Tesla and they assured me my vehicle already had the necessary camera hardware...

    Brake job miles?

    Just shy of 45K. In another "brake" thread, i also talked about not feeling like I did anything wrong in so far as a driving style, my normal driving is alot like that of a 70 year old, no offense to older guys, but I seriously treat this car like a baby, i never speed or hard brake. I must be...

    Brake job miles?

    Brake job miles?

    My brakes according to all other accounts prematurely wore out. I was only at 45k when brakes starting squealing, Tesla replaced all 4, not cheap I can tell you. I sort of knew going in that Tesla was going to be absurdly expensive, but as handy as I am, just wasnt up to doing a brake job on...

    Does FSD in a used Model S help?

    A few thousand more easily, if the right buyer comes along and wants FSD they WILL pay $2k-$3k more, thats easy , again depends on ehat other Model Ys are fetching and of course how many of them have FSD, my Model S has FSD and people know it adds a value compared to one without, all thing being...

    Does FSD in a used Model S help?

    Whether or not it adds value or not depends on who buys the car. If I wanted to buy a Model Y and none of the other cars I was looking at had FSD, but yours did in this hypothetical, I would ideally look at buying yours. It all depends on market like most things. If its a feature that the...

    After MCU2 upgrade my 2016 S75D vampire drain seems to be non existent......?

    Last year when I opted for MCU 2, i was seeing some significant battery drain overnight. I couldnt figure out why that was, went through a few software updates during that time and was just thinking Tesla was fiddling with software, but when I searched here, i discovered many others with my...

    Opinions on Trading in 21 MS LR for 22/23 MSLR?

    Well, you will be out taxes as well correct? I would prob hang on to it, but thats me.....taxes alone would kill the notion of springing for a later model.

    2017 Model S with question on interior lighting

    So, i have a mid 2017 Model S with no rear seat led's. Ive ordered some lights, but when I take a peek under there, definitely no place to insert the lights. Im not sure if this was an option on the car. There is also only one light for the trunk on the hatch, so would also like to add some...

    Tesla owner costs

    I know it’s hard to understand trust me when I tell you I hardly ever hard brake. When I started looking at some other threads on brake issues I too noticed that most people had over 60,000 miles and their brakes till performed as new when others like myself had their brakes fail at a fairly...

    Tesla owner costs

    I just started to experience some shuddering with my braking and I figured it was probably time to get new ones along with rotors. Tesla just serviced my car and that was $2000 for new brakes and rotors. Mileage seems to be all over the place with these cars it doesn’t make any sense my needed...

    2016 MS Interior Color Change

    i can understand wanting to change the interior color, although wanting white seats had more to do with the textile fabric getting discolored in my instance. No matter how careful I was during summer, sweating on those seats is a nightmare. Recently, i ordered some white seats from Taptes, and...

    Should I hold this Model S?

    I would remove that piano black trim piece, maybe someday someone will pay you for something like that? For now, you can remove it and buy a replacement piece, should be about $100 and then u dont have to worry about driving around with a signature like that inside the car. Its cool, but I...

    Question for any owners of a newer Model Y and 2019 Model is...graphite color?

    Can someone tell me if the steering wheel trim that Tesla uses in their Model Y lineup matches the graphite trim used in their Model S? Im trying to color match and it would be a big help if I knew whether or not those two trims in each car are identical. Im specifically trying to color match...

    Advice on wrapping and PPF?

    For me, it came down to cost......i tried to wrap my car, its alot harder than it looks. lol. I just bought a small amount to see about doing probably the easiest part which is the hood. I thought I could do it because I did manage to tackle the interior trim pieces and it turned out...

    Advice on wrapping and PPF?

    I responded because when I first got my S i wanted to do the exact thing......i wanted to wrap it and PPF it, and I still do want to do that......however as time went on, i forgot about it and just enjoyed owning it. After about a year I came back to the idea of PPF and wrapping.... but PPF I...

    Advice on wrapping and PPF?

    Im not sure of why you would want to PPF the car at this point, similarly my 2017 has similar paint issues and the value add on something like this is really hard to justify given your Model S is no longer new. If you are intending to just do either a PPF or wrap for cosmetic reasons, i could...

    TeslaWaze updates (was: TeslaWaze is Done!)

    He's right, it is pretty bad.......but I dont think most people even use it all that much. When I first got my S, i tried using it, but it never really was very useful. I dont think Tesla ever really intended to have people use it for the purposes like someone would an ipad. The screen is...

    how to remove door arm bolsters

    yeah, thats what I was thinking too, but was hoping I didnt have to take entire door panel off to get that piece off.....the clips are a real pain in the ass to stay tight, once you start removing them as I alraedy found out when I did the sound deadening project a few weeks back

    how to remove door arm bolsters

    Unless I am missing something, I dont see an exploded view of that arm bolster which isnt part of that door trim removal PDF. I know how to get the door panels off, but I want to just remove the inner arm bolster, NOT the entire door panel unless I have to.

    how to remove door arm bolsters

    Im not even sure if that is the correct term, but would like to know if these are removeable. They appear to be two separate pieces as far as the door is concerned? Are there clips that snap into actual door? Can they be pulled off while door still attached to body, or do you have to take...

    Screen surround/bezel

    As someone who is similarly looking at updating some of the trim pieces including the bezel you are looking at, I wanted to chime in on carbon fiber real vs fake stuff. I too find that Pimp my Ev carbon fiber trim overkill ( not to mention the price!!) imo....thing about carbon is it looks good...

    What options for matte CF for the center console flip door and the sliding tray panel (2012 - 2020 Model S)?

    If that one in your picture is original OEM Tesla carbon fiber you might be able to slap on a piece of PPF and that’ll make it look matte I just don’t know if it’s gonna match the rest of your interior trim that you have in Matte. The problem is the slider it just is going to get scratched...

    NVX Subwoofer vs 4 light harmonic door speakers

    I had a rough time doing it, im glad I dont have to do it again......its tedious. I ended up using Roadkill sound deadener. I found a good deal on Amazon and it was not absurdly expensive. Its Stinger RKX36B roadkill expert series. It cost $117 for 36 sq feet, which was plenty for all 4...

    What options for matte CF for the center console flip door and the sliding tray panel (2012 - 2020 Model S)?

    So, one thing you could do is protect that center console tray with some nice matte PPF, i just bought a kit from XPEL so I dont have to cut any of the pieces for any of the Model S trim....I imagine you can save a few bucks and just trim it yourself from a piece bought.....so according to the...
