    2019 Model 3 Miles - Do they Matter?

    I purchased a 2019 M3 last October that was 11 months old and had 45K miles on it. I too was weary about the miles but the car had every option available including full self driving. I paid 35K for the car which original sticker was over 50K. I had to weigh the options, I decided to go with it...

    Swivel Screen Mount Kit: Any Reviews/Impressions?

    No, it doesn't come with tools but all you need is a small flat screwdriver, a phillips screwdriver and a socket set. I had no issues at all. Still love it.

    Swivel Screen Mount Kit: Any Reviews/Impressions?

    Interesting, is it different from the factory clip? My cable has a red connector that plugs onto the PCB and then a large white clip that completely wraps around the connector on the board and the plug on the cable. Maybe not the same. BTW, he says if you are outside the US, message him on his...

    Swivel Screen Mount Kit: Any Reviews/Impressions?

    I messaged him through eBAY and sent him the link to the thread so he can see the interest outside the US. On mine, I actually had 2-3 inches extra cable I had to push back in the dash. I have mine turned towrds me at full lock and still had slack it that helps at all.

    Swivel Screen Mount Kit: Any Reviews/Impressions?

    In addition, if their website shows out of stock, search eBAY, they have a page and sell them new there as well. I got mine off of their eBAY page. @GtiMart, not sure where you are located but on their eBAY page here are the shipping restrictions: Excludes: Angola, Cameroon, Cayman Islands...

    Swivel Screen Mount Kit: Any Reviews/Impressions?

    By the way, if you need guidance on the removal and wire handling the Teslamize removal and install video will work but I also referenced the rpmtesla video for the one they sell. It is much more clear when seeing how to remove the main screen harness. The Teslamize video did not show the white...

    Swivel Screen Mount Kit: Any Reviews/Impressions?

    I had absoultuely no issues with the install and the cables are actually long enough you have slack. I do recommend adding a little loctite to the four mounting screws just for insurance nothing comes loose. I would not want to make a habit of having to remove the screen if the screws loosened...

    Swivel Screen Mount Kit: Any Reviews/Impressions?

    I purchased the Teslamize swivel mount that has factory looking plastic cover instead of the simulated leather wrap. I always wanted one but thought the wrap was too hokey looking. This thing is amazing. Easy install and looks factory. $180.00 bucks and 20 minutes to install. The second picture...

    Got rear-ended with minor damage, bumper replacement or repaint ?

    By the way, my car is a little over a year old and it matched perfectly.

    Got rear-ended with minor damage, bumper replacement or repaint ?

    I just went through this this same situation. Other driver at fault. They required I go to her insurance providers body shop (non Tesla) to get an estimate first. They estimated $750.00. They cut me a check. Because by law you have a choice where to take it for repairs, I told the adjuster I was...

    2021 Model 3 trunk replacement LED lights

    Hmm. Im surprised you had this problem unless they changed the connectors on the 21 model. I purchased the puddle lights from Evannex and then replaced the footwell lights, trunk lights and rear door puddle lights all with Amazon LED's just like those. All had the same connector. The only thing...

    Looking for some advice [new vs used - is fsd worth it]

    I as well was in the same boat in California. Buy new without anything I wanted (color, wheels, options) to fit budget or go pre-owned. Long story short, I bought a pre-owned 2019, blue, wheels, full self driving for 36K still under factory warranty, Have had no issues other than the annoying...

    Any Improvements to rear seat latches?

    I had this same issue. Last weekend I picked up some weather stripping at Lowe's. 1/2" thick, 3/4" wide. There are two types, very firm and not that plyable usually black, I got the grey that is softer and plyable. I folded down each seat and applied a strip to the rear shelf that the seats rest...

    Pocket Lights

    So I took the rear door panels back off this weekend and wired up the pocket lights. While I had them off, I also swapped out the puddle lights with blue LED's. You can get a 4 pack of them on Amazon for $22.00. I used these for the footwell lights too. The cool thing about those is that they...

    Pocket Lights

    Totally agree. Search for this discussion. It will give you better insight. No footwell lights on standard range plus model 3

    Pocket Lights

    Hi Mike, I think your going to find it depends on what interior trim package you have. After doing a ton of research (mostly here before joining) what I found on my 2019 SR+ is that the footwell lights, pocket lights and all the ambient lighting hardware is there but turned off via software...

    Pocket Lights

    So another intersting note before you buy speakers. The entire interior of the door panel is plastic welded. I looked at the speakers and I believe you have to dismantle the interior panel in order to get the speaker out. I say this for a particular reason baking up a bit. When I chose to change...

    Pocket Lights

    I will take some photos this weekend and post them. It is easy to do. I posted in a thread yesterday showing the interior mods I did last weekend. I had the rear door panels off and thats when I traced the wiring down for the pocket lights. I did this by identifying the harness by part number...

    Pocket Lights

    Confirmed yesterday with the door panel removed, using a 12V motorcycle battery and jumpers the hardware is there and operable. Mine actually have a full set of wires and male/female plugs mated just no juice to power them. Assuming software shut off related. I actually tapped the power from the...

    White Interior with Black Door Panels

    Hello everyone, I am a new member to the site and a new Model 3 owner. I purchased a 2019 SR+ in October. Blue exterior with all black interior. I really like the way the all white interior looks but to me it's too much white. In addition I like the the all black like mine has but again in my...
