    Battery Fuse Replacement 2016 Model S 90D

    Thank you so much for this. Tesla is charging me $509.45, said the replacement would take all day, and also refused to provide a loaner car because they say I’m out of warranty. Though I’m in warranty for the battery, they are telling me that the fuse is external to it and not included in that...

    Wireless Phone Charger for Tesla Model S

    I bought this product and it’s complete trash. It doesn’t work. I’ve tried charging multiple phones including my iPhone XS, but nothing charged. I even took off my iPhone case just to make sure. This power mat keeps blinking red, blue, and pink. Also, the 3M tape was too thin and it didn’t...

    Sound System Upgrade

    Here is another image of the knob that was not installed.

    Sound System Upgrade

    Haha. Quality control, of course. Makes sense. I really can’t see much of the other knob given the way it was installed but here is an image.

    Sound System Upgrade

    Actually, it comes with two knobs. One is the gain and the other appears to be a QC Pass knob. I have no idea why this was not installed and whether it would help or not.

    Sound System Upgrade

    It looks like the shop only installed the gain knob. I see that they left a second knob in my fronk. Are you referring to the second knob? They had mention that it’s not needed for my system (can’t remember the rationale). Should they have installed this as well? The sub is not too offensively...

    Sound System Upgrade

    just a quick update: I received the NVX BOOST amp and sub but they forgot to include one of the screws for the fuse and so I had to fork out another $40 to the shop (Car Audio Specialties in Belmont, CA) which isn’t that much but was definitely an inconvenience. So far, the sub is much more...

    Model S Vanity Mirror Lighting Upgrade

    Thank you. This might work. I'm still searching to see if there is a more subtle/simple LED that can be added so that the existing mirror can be used.

    Model S Vanity Mirror Lighting Upgrade

    Hi All, No vanity mirror light for Model S? This is a pretty minor inconvenience but still a surprising one given the complexity of these cars. Has anyone looked into upgrading/modifying these mirrors to include a light? I'm imagining a battery powered (or solar-charged) LED as the hassle to...

    2015/2016 Model S 85D range confusion

    Is there a source where we can look up post-production upgrades / specs. I have a 2016 85D and had the same 0-60 spec question. Is it still 4.4s? Thank you!

    Vendor For Sale: NVX Audio B.O.O.S.T Series Powered Bass Kit for Tesla Model S *NEW*

    Looks to be sold out according to your website. Just curious, what is the difference is between the old version of the NVX BOOST and the new version of the NVX Tesla BOOST. I see that the new one has the XLCA2. Is it just a cost-cutting redesign or does it actually affect the quality or...

    recommendation for NVX audio installer in the bay area?

    I have the exact same question. I've heard good things about Caracoustics and they have pictures of Teslas at their shop but I am not sure how many they've actually worked on.

    Sound System Upgrade

    I've decided to spend a little extra on the NVX Tesla BOOST in hopes that there will be less technical difficulties than other options. What I'm not sure of is what the difference is between the old version of the NVX Tesla BOOST and the new version of the NVX Tesla BOOST. Does anybody know? Is...

    Sound System Upgrade

    Thank you so much for this thorough background. This is super helpful for newbies like myself. What would you recommend given the following preferences: 1) Only feel a need to boost low frequency by a bit. I mainly listen to rap. I want to actually feel the deep bass but don’t want the cheap...

    Sound System Upgrade

    The 8" Rainbow Sub is only 2.9" thick but I agree that even this might not be enough room. I haven't measured under the seats. Drilling a hole in the firewall sounds intense. What does that mean? Will this void any Tesla warranties or compromise the car in anyway? I looked at the NVX video and...

    Subwoofer Under Driver Seat

    Would this fit under a Model S seat?

    Sound System Upgrade

    I've done a little research (via Tesla threads) and refinement of what I think is the most effective and cost-efficient upgrade. Best Upgrade: New Sub and Amp From both a personal perspective and the most common opinion I've seen on here, the most significant upgrade that can be made is the...

    Sound System Upgrade

    I apologize for posting such a common question. It seems there are many threads on here such as: Ideal Aftermarket Audio System for Model S Light Harmonic upgraded speakers Ultra High Fidelity Sound System, Reus, or something else? Subwoofers anyone?!

    Sound System Upgrade

    Thank you so much for this information. Did you have the high fidelity sound package with your Model S? I'm just wondering if the upgrade you did was from the stock system or from the premium system as this may make a difference. I've never altered my car stereos before (never felt the need...

    Sound System Upgrade

    Thank you for the guidance. I completely agree that it is sub-par. Have you already modified your sound system? I've never done this before and so I was wondering what the first step would be? Given that the most significant drawback I notice now is the bass, I'm thinking of adding a sub but I'm...

    Yes, this was included with my package.

    Sound System Upgrade

    Hi Model S Community! I recently purchased a used 2016 85D Model S directly from Tesla and the first thing I noticed was the poor audio quality (bass especially) in comparison to my 2009 BMW 650i. I was wondering if anyone has ever upgraded the sound system directly through Tesla or if they...
