    Headlights too bright?

    There is an actual service manual you can download for free from Tesla that shows you how to adjust the matrix headlights. I remember you have to be on a flat service 25 ft back and mark 32 inches where the beam should hit on the wall. The only problem I had is I couldn't adjust the beam left to...

    Tesla White Seats-Normal wear and tear

    I have have the exact same problem on my white seats. I wasn't too happy about it when I first saw it but now it doesn't bother me as much. I figured Tesla would deny me for a warranty claim and say it's normal wear and tear.

    White seats - child car seat protection

    I bought this one from Amazon and had no problems with dye transfer on my white seats after 26k miles. The underside of the seat protector is white too so it seems unlikely any transfer will occur. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MXQJWRA/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_5B6FQAQ2Z4HR0TFHVKXA?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

    Should I black out my badges/emblems on my black MY?

    I ended up buying plastic covers to cover the emblems and bought the dual motor badge from abstract ocean. My plan is to eventually do a more permanent solution with emblems but with a 15 month old baby I hardly have the time so my current set up satisfies me for now.

    Should I black out my badges/emblems on my black MY?

    They are both a matte finish. It could be the lighting and angle making the dual motor badge look more glossy.

    Should I black out my badges/emblems on my black MY?

    I did it on my MYP. Also added a carbon license plate to match the spoiler. I like it even if it's hardly noticeable on a black car.

    All weather mats…. Tis the season (POLL)

    I'm a sucker for OEM parts and accessories so I went with the Tesla all weather mats and for the most part I like them, but I hate the fact that the dead pedal area has half the coverage than what the carpeted mats had. I like to rest my foot on the dead pedal but find myself lowering my foot so...

    Do you see your wipers from seat?

    I have a 2021 MYP built March 2021 and they hide below the hood when not engaged. I do notice they stay up a little higher when in Auto until the car thinks no more rain is coming it will lower back down.

    21 Uberturbines to 19 Gemini

    I bought them on this forum from a local seller. Basically brand new with everything included with less than 50 miles for $1700. This can be all in my head but I did notice a pretty big difference. I've put 14,000 miles on my Uberturbines so I have a good sense of what the car felt like prior...

    21 Uberturbines to 19 Gemini

    Just finished switching my Uberturbines to Gemini wheels on my MYP. Used my original lugs and torqued to spec 129 ft lbs. Haven't driven it yet since the swap but excited to see if there is any performance difference and comfort. I'm using the Gemini wheels for winter set up.

    Model Y 19’’ Gemini Wheels for sale

    Just adding another data point. I purchased Gemini wheels from here for $1,700 that included everything (tpms, wheel covers, etc.) that had less than 50 miles on them. I see them going anywhere from $1,500-1,700. Good luck!

    Successful retrofit of passenger lumbar on 2021 Model Y

    It goes on the right side bolster. You'll see in the metal seat frame 2 holes where the clips from the fabric bag clip into. It's a pretty tight squeeze but I was able to clip mine in by touch and feel. Did you buy a new seat switch too? You'll need that too as the current switch doesn't have...

    rust under front seats

    I have an early build (March 2021) and my seat trim came with a t15 torx screw instead the white push pin that I believe the seats are now coming with. Kind of hard to see but you can see the screw I have from the factory. I've never had an issue like others have reported with the white push pin.

    Successful retrofit of passenger lumbar on 2021 Model Y

    I bought the seat switch from this seller: danvi-llc on eBay And bought the lumbar support from this seller: nein-lives-parts on eBay What's weird is I don't see any passenger seat switches and wondering if people are buying them due to this post? You might want to try and buy the parts new...

    Successful retrofit of passenger lumbar on 2021 Model Y

    It was a successful install and done in under 30 minutes. It was pretty straightforward and reading this post prior definitely made things easier. I will add that the pump can clip to the seat frame if the black clips are on the pump bag. If not, it's fits snuggly without being clipped but I...

    Successful retrofit of passenger lumbar on 2021 Model Y

    I received my used parts from eBay today. I'll be doing the install this Saturday and will update this thread on the outcome. Both parts seem to be in really good shape and no physical damage so crossing my fingers it goes well on Saturday.

    Successful retrofit of passenger lumbar on 2021 Model Y

    @osunick thanks for posting this! I plan to do this retrofit for my dad. I ended up finding the parts on ebay for about $150. For the seat switch was it easy to pull off the recline and sliding button to add to the new switch? I'm nervous to pop them off as it seems the ones on ebay either have...

    White interior with wood dash from factory. Oops

    Y still has the old door panels. I really like the added trim but kind of wish they of would kept the white insert instead of switching it to black.

    White interior with wood dash from factory. Oops

    Someone posted a while back who ordered the white interior and got black inserts in their door panels instead of white. This doesn't surprise me.

    Carbon Spoiler Separating

    I'm on my 2nd replacement since owning the car. This time around it does seem to fit better but I have a feeling it's only a matter time it will separate at the ends. Both times Tesla replaced under warranty and with a new one each time.

    Are the new 2021 refreshed Model S supposed to come with a black license plate frame that say Model S on it? My mom recently took delivery of her Model S and I noticed it doesn't have a license plate frame around the temporary plate. Today, I saw a new refresh Model S and it had a black...

    MY White Interior - What not to wear

    Blue jeans and black jeans seem to transfer to white seats even if washed hundreds of times. They seem to clean up pretty easy with baby wipes, but gotta build that in as a weekly routine. I keep baby wipes in my center console just in case I have an opportunity to wipe the seats down wherever...

    Rear window trim - replace or not?

    I have the same issue on mine too but not nearly as bad. I'm tempted to put some type of strong adhesive to see if that fixes it because I can snap it back flush, but as soon as I drive away it pops out. Tesla service always seems to screw something else up in the process so not sure its worth...

    Biodefense mode

    I know this would be an added expense, but seems likely they might sell a retrofit for Model Y since I see that as an option in the Tesla store for Model S and X. It's something I would consider.

    Coat hooks fail to latch closed

My biggest fear is the service team doing more damage than good like exactly how you described it. I've already experienced it when they removed the passenger door panel and...
