    Teslaunch Refresh Stalk kit install and review

    Signatures! Definitely did not on mine.

    Teslaunch Refresh Stalk kit install and review

    I wouldn't use an impact wrench. This may seem really difficult to remove, but with 2 people, it takes about 5 seconds using a breaker bar.

    Teslaunch Refresh Stalk kit install and review

    It could, but only if they can show that the mod reasonably had something to whatever issue occurred. For example, they came to replace my defective trunk latch yesterday. That clearly did not have anything to do with these stalks. At the same time, however, my center console sliding door broke...

    Sliding door on center console stopping at wrong place

    Just got my center console repaired. I had no wires to be seen, so it was covered by warranty. I did nothing to break it anyway. They found an alcohol wipe that fell into the panel and he believed this caused the breakage. Very common to have things like credit cards, etc., slip in there and...

    Teslaunch Refresh Stalk kit install and review

    Great write up! I think you left out the part about removing the yoke though. Yes, I wish they would program this so pulling back flashed the lights like every other car on the planet, and an option for us to reprogram it ourselves. For now, they should at least do this for all future shipments

    Superchargers in Southern California (location speculation)

    Or, the beauty is if you don't have charging at home, like many apartment buildings, here is a place to charge up when needed.

    That is weird. For me, they had a problem with my delivery address and I had to make sure it was residential. Upon arrival to the US, they have a local company that completes the delivery.

    Superchargers in Southern California (location speculation)

    Looks like a frickin' SC to me! Nice job! Create a thread, and call it "Supercharger - Aliso Viejo (possible new construction)" If it is not, the mods can always update the info later. Stop by again in a few days and update us. Workers may be on site tomorrow.

    Do FSD strikes ever get reset without striking out?

    My understanding is that Tesla is planning on revising the FSD strikes. Could be a rumor, but apparently each strike lasts only a few (5?) days before resetting.

    My guess is that it is an industry standard to change the bolt.

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    Even if hit purposefully and fully, I did find that more than a few times nothing happened. I can't say if this is a fault of the design, or the nature of the interface. To answer your question, I would say Light years better than no stalks!

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    I found my cable. As far as a splitter goes, I did find this on Amazon. It is for M3/MY, but I think they may be the same. It may take a little bit of work, but I imaging one could make a splitter out of a couple of these.

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    I always thought it was called a diagnostic connector. It seams that only Enhauto calls them OBD. The OBD2 is the port under the dash as you showed. Lots of splitters are available for that OBD port. I guess one could always build a splitter. I believe Ryan posted somewhere deep up-thread...

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    "Insensitive" is the incorrect word. By me asking for them to be more sensitive, I mean more responsive. At times, though not every time, I feel I must make sure the gear change is fully engaged, pushing the stalk up or down very purposefully. For that matter, I must do the same with the...

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    It seems to work the same as the wheel. I have not tried turning off auto cancel, so can't speak to that. Mostly works well. I wish it was a bit more sensitive. I need to make sure I fully engage the gear stalk to activate. I had it not change gears until I really focused on it.

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    A bit more expensive, but glad there are options. It has taken me a bit to get used to having stalks again!

    Vendor Teslaunch Model X/S Gear Shift Stalk Switch Turn Signal Lever Kit🚀GIVEAWAY!

    If they can allow us to update it, I wonder if we could also customize it. For example, I'd rather push the left stalk to honk, rather than pull, and keep the pull for flashing high beams (most vehicles). I have been using the stalks for over a week now. Sometimes the response lags a bit, but...

    I have a set of these 302's in this exact color scheme. I get compliments on these constantly. In fact, the people at the tire shop were in awe. FYI, as a follow-up, Jamie referred me to these guys for fixing my rim rash. They were amazing and I want to give them a shout out. I called them...

    Yoke peeling

    For a warranty part, that is probably different. If, OTOH, you pay for a repair, then you are entitled to the parts. You own all the parts of a car. Can I cite the law? No. I am sure I could if I had to, but I currently have no need.

    Not sure about Michigan, but in. California, It is illegal for them to refuse to let you keep the old parts.

    I think you made your point. Multiple times. Overall, most people feel that the risk is small. If Tesla does end up breaking it, that would suck, but at least we got to use them until then. Regardless, Teslaunch said they will stand by their product. If you feel it is too risky, maybe this is...

    I thought Ryan said that nothing they did had an adverse affect? Still, it would be nice to be able to reprogram these if needed.

    Vendor Teslaunch Model X/S Gear Shift Stalk Switch Turn Signal Lever Kit🚀GIVEAWAY!

    Yes, I will try, though I already shaved the piece and it is now working smoothly. The problem is that if I play with it to make a video, I honk the horn and bother the neighbors. I will change it to a fart sound! It was rubbing on the trim just a tiny bit, I think in the front/forward of the...

    After driving with the stalks for longer, I no longer hit the horn. I don’t think that will be a problem, though I would still prefer it to operate as originally (for whatever that’s worth) intended. If I didn’t have a center horn button, I may want it too. Trimming the opening was key and...

    I installed the stalks today. I am mostly okay with it, but certainly could be happier. QUALITY: Overall seems solid, with the caveat below. INSTALL: I would love to have said that it went without a hitch, but that was not the case. The most frustrating part of the install was the screws they...

    Sliding door on center console stopping at wrong place

    The sliding door on my center console, 2022, no longer stays all the way forward, and instead stops half-way over the forward cubby/drawer, instead of exactly in the middle, between the drawer and cup holder. At least it does hold in that spot, and slides all the way back when properly touched...

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    If you look way up-thread, many people said they were willing to pay more. I actually bought many of the parts, wiring, connectors long ago. Probably spent around $150, for the stuff to sit in a box in the back of a closet. I even got to meet Ryan on one occasion at a Tesla coffee event. But...

    I had to remove my airbag several times. It is a standard procedure and very easy to do. It is electronically activated, not by local manipulation. That is why honking the horn (on newer yokes and other cars) does not cause an explosion. At the same time, you can bet your a$$ that I was darn...

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    Yes, see my edit above. They use the OBD term for that port, where the traditional OBd is elsewhere

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    Are you sure? Watching their tutorial, it seems that they plug into the diagnostic port under the center console, not the OBD. And yes, they do make a splitter, as I am using it now for another project, though not with S3XY buttons. EDIT: I just watched the installation video again, and indeed...

    I have previously purchased one of your products and had very good results. Watching your video and tutorial, it seems like you put this together very well. I purchased it immediately. I will absolutely do a write up of this as soon as it is installed and operational.

    I am confused. I don’t see any negative responses to your post. Were they deleted by the moderator? I am grateful that you posted it, and bought it within minutes.

    RGB Ambient Lighting project for Palladium Model S - lets do it

    Yes, pin 16 is + and 4 is ground, and wired to the SSR like that. Just make sure the load/LEDs are on the correct side of the SSR. Mine was labeled backwards. No big deal if you do, only the LEDs will be on without the control activated. I am definitely adding a rocker switch. Great idea...

    RGB Ambient Lighting project for Palladium Model S - lets do it

    Everything is done, and even more than I planned, adding footwell lights. As mentioned up-thread, I had a b**ch-and-a-half with the center console. The fit was so tight that it was nearly impossible. I did it, without adhesive of course, but it did not come out as perfect and straight as I would...

    RGB Ambient Lighting project for Palladium Model S - lets do it

    Got the dash done today. Took less than an hour. Again, will post photos later. I just want to throw out a point here: I was super hesitant to remove the center screen, based on what others said (30 minutes off/30 minutes on, etc...). @Proppilot convinced me that it wasn't too hard, and he even...

    RGB Ambient Lighting project for Palladium Model S - lets do it

    Finally started this project yesterday evening. I decided to run everything to the center console under the phone charger, since really, there is little to put there, and it is easy to work with, rather than under the dash. Got one door wired, power set up, etc, but no LEDs installed. A few...
