relaying a post I just saw on reddit. Finally!

I understand the pain for early adopters but folks like me who recently purchased at a premium would be left out. my 2 cents - open it up with beta acknowledgement (alter terms so that it could be removed if misused). As a software developer/tester/manager/leader - I would think I could offer...

fyi - 2 new additions permit & construction added nearby North Philly & South. South location will be great for airport runs.

Well, it wasn't removed like Plymouth Meeting....I guess that's progress...

I think they look good. Surprised they didn't add the factory rear 3rd window tint to complete the look.

I also purchased as a ladder to FSD. I'm happy with it, but the $5K upgrade to FSD should have been disclosed upfront. I assumed with the $8K FSD ( EAP would be $4k, FSD would be $4k). I bet simply splitting the difference to $4K would have increased the conversion to FSD. They've created a...

Regardless of permits, King of Prussia has always been targeted by Tesla as a "coming soon" Supercharger location. King of Prussia, PA | Tesla Back in 2016 with my Model S, I never imagined it would be Sept-2020 with nothing in the vicinity...that "coming soon" has a odd definition.

There's always been a King of Prussia (coming soon) on the Tesla website though...for many, many years... My 2 cents is that someone has dropped the ball for the region. If peco or the state are slowing the process, the public should know about it.

I noticed a new Frunk Foot sensor is now available. Anyone install it or have any insight to the install process?

Good pic! ;)

sorry, I don't have a pic but take my word it's an easy connection once you drop the glove box trim. Just use a 1/4" ratchet with a 3 or 4" extension. Loosen the nut and slide the blade lead underneath. Tighten back up.

That seemed to be a important power connection, I avoided it as it seems to be used often during battery service. The front passenger connection is really easy to get to.

Ahh got, very cool. Since your going to that level, I would powder coat them for peace of mind or get some red OEM Performance S Calipers. Thanks wasn't aware of the retrofit kit.

looks good, better than the plastic covers. Why Model S calipers? I assume you are doing this for your Model S before the 3?

The lack of communication with Hansshow is troubling, ordered the Frunk kit on the 18th, no invoice, no status, no returned emails. I realize these are crazy times right now but no excuses for not returning emails or providing estimated ship dates. Nor should you receive a used, damage kit at...

** Good luck!, its a fun project - just take your time, use a firm but gentle hand. I'm waiting for the Frunk kit.

It's hard to see from the diagram but it's a threaded bolt attachment. Easy to see once you remove the trim. Look for the wire bundle to locate the bolt (red arrow line).

I left the speaker attached, tray just hangs down when you disconnect the light. From the picture it looks like you need remove the pins from the connector. Once removed reattach the wires and slide the pins back in. I didn't need to change the trunk closing strength setting but I did need to...

YouTube videos are all over the place in regard to power connections (passing through the door trim didn't make sense to me). I went with the product diagram of under the glove box - right side foot well. Connects to a existing power screw.

i attached the ground in the back by the amp and the power was surprisingly easy - passenger foot well on the right side. Well worth it, for some reason I always felt embarrassed closing the trunk by hand at grocery stores :)

Not as bad as it seems at first. Start with the lower trims first and work your way up, and remember to do both sides. The airbag trim just hangs in place once pulled off. Also, pushing the connector out of its tab helps.

Installed the Trunk kit last night...I ended up routing through the lights, couldn't figure out how to fish the wires through without removing the bumper cover. I'll prb add a dab of sealant around the wire. Worst part was removing the rear seat trim and back cover, especially with a white...

I continue to hope for a second $2K boost to a performance (non-track) level.

Forgive me if this has already been mentioned but wouldn't it be cool if Tesla named the car for us. Each car delivered uniquely named, similar to the 80's Beanie Baby collectable fad. I think that would be cool and a nice surprise on delivery day, unless you get a bad name of course. :) ArcaBlue

Agreed, it seems they want to boost the SaaS model - removing the previous +2K stealth will most likely accelerate the LR boost purchases. I'm surprised we haven't see any other upgrade options by now though. Side note, also surprised by the lack of available store upgrades...wheels, spoilers...

Yes, no difference.

I posted this on another thread. Here is a quick iphone pic of the pocket light with led/wiring of my front door ('20 LR AWD). The LED lights are in all door pockets. I'm not sure why they aren't enabled. My only guess is that they will get a independent ambient software switch at some point.

Unless something changes at the current pricing, I'm not sure why anyone would buy a (performance model without the upgrade option) over the (Long Range with Boost). To ensure safety and optimize the cars additional performance levels, I think you would need the performance tire tread, larger...

Once you drive the car after the refund, I think you might regret it...the boost is more than 0 to 60 stomps, it has a overall impact on how the car handles and feels. Whenever I get a hint of buyers remorse, I just select chill mode for a few minutes...it removes remorse quickly. It's by no...

Got it, that may be true.

I still don't understand why Tesla didn't just add the performance Accel upgrade option to the Long Range model with a price bump (~+$4k). Leaving the performance line as is with higher top speed, track mode, perf. brakes/wheels/spoiler, etc. This would also mean offering incremental levels of...

I have no idea. My only guess is that they will be enabled or turned on later on with a software update, perhaps a new ambient dimming function?? I think we'll know more once Model Y's start rolling out.

confirmed, lights and wiring are there..just not enabled.

Sure, credit goes to Tech Forum channel, ..at 1:13 mark Whats under the Tesla Model 3 frunk? Lets take a look!

Good video! when discussing the frunk mat @ 2min mark, you mention a hard metal plate underneath. That plate has also been removed in later models. Seems to be some sort of lightweight reinforcement. I imagine its no longer needed, wonder if the tub is thicker.

Found this clip of the etron PWS/External Sound.

Right, I'd prefer the sound be internal cabin only using the audio sound system (assuming configurable Off/On). The PWS is fine as is with the current small speaker upfront for low speed, otherwise silent. Full time external sound would prb. need a bass freq. chamber type addition e.g. BMW i8...

maybe not a ICE engine but a more sport EV noise - similar to the Porsche Taycan. Check out at 13:00 min.

A official Tesla declaration of a chrome underline for the Acc. Boost, with the matching dual motor chrome underline displayed on the "About your Tesla" Screen would be perfect IMHO. Personally, I would prefer the about screen update over the car emblem. Perhaps provide an purchase option for...

so it appears that the 2020 LR DM premium interiors have the pocket LED's with the wiring in the door. As compared to tinkererguy's photo's - Thank you. Just not enabled for some reason. This is based on my very bad but quick iphone photo.

Agree. Please let us know about adding the pockets lights. Costs, P/N's and the install process. Thanks

How about a software addition - Autopilot Odometer - it would display lifetime miles or trip miles driven with Autopilot engaged.

of course there are ideal conditions required to hit the best time measurements. Also, keep in mind that every car is in a different state of condition, so recorded times will vary a bit. When evaluating value, I think its the delta between measurements that matter the most (pre versus post...

Thanks for posting, hopefully that will help raise attention

I've heard you state this several times but I don't think you have provided any supporting info. Please charge to around 90% and provide a screen image of your app charging screen. if it shows 280 @ 90%, its 310 @ 100% SOC. Hoping it is 320, 322. Thanks

Adding, I've also noticed the boost has a pronounced impact on overall drivability - car does seems lighter. Backing up in reverse hold seems smoother too. it's not just off the line acceleration, useful in everyday situations (merging, out of corners, passing, etc.) Just my 2 cents...
