Ok. Some of us hate the cheapness of OEM mats. They also aren't rubber. They're full cover. There are many materials that come in full cover and most are for performance or luxury cars. Either way, I'm not here to sway you.

Try to go see a car with it on. Try to find a car with a similar curved shape. Is your interior white? Mine is black. I tinted all glass and added strip across the top of the windshield. But nothing on the rest of it.

A premium job will have minimal (if any) remaining liquid. That isn't the distortion that it causes. The reason is that the windshield is curved so there is differential distortion of the waves

It happens every time. You're looking through plastic and glue, neither of which are optically clear regardless of what people try to say. I don't tint the whole windshield for that reason. It doesn't bother everyone. Most don't care until they notice it, if they even notice it. It gets me nauseous.

Yup. I'm on it. But if you google tuxmat 2024 highland tesla model 3, the following link shows up and appears as if you can order them. Yet note that they are the wrong ones. Odd.

They just told me end of July. They mistakenly sent me a 2023 set in the meantime. Be careful if the website says it is available.

They aren't available yet. I bought a set a week ago and they sent me the 2023 style. What you have pictured there is CORRECT for 2024

Another member scooped it up a while back. Sorry.

You are really showing yourself well. I didn't realize that you were trying to rationalize the LFP battery. I think it's awesome that your LFP gives you the same experience as the performance gives to others. I can just see you zoom zooming away

I think it is because they sell the LG battery in it as an option.

The 2024 Rally Armor is DIFFERENT. It no longer uses a metal arm to frame it. The 2024 design is nicer. I would upgrade. I have a 2023 and a 2024, so we can compare and contrast.

I don't think that those are scratches. I think it is from the plastic on the aero when they were pressed on. Pulling them off doesn't rub the front of the wheel, since the plastic nubs are on the back side. To clean them, I'd use a mild polish. I used a cleaner/wax combo.

Riddle me this: How do you know that Fremont has improved to catch up? I appreciate the vote of confidence, but how again are you the expert? I don't need to live in Europe to keep track of cars. I'm simply analytical and like to connect dots. You are satisfied with youtube videos. To each his...

The metal doesn't touch when being installed or removed. Did yours scrape?

Not trying to argue, but that shouldn't be where the pry bar was. If it was, you didn't follow the instructions. That should be from the plastic of the aero cap itself. And it was done when the cap was INSTALLED. You will not avoid these marks. Look at the pictures from those that took the wheel...

I don't have a problem with people posting your personal experiences. I don't put any weight into youtube videos because they are biased. For example, there is a video out there that "shows" that a model 3 LR. with a ghost mod that beats a performance. Now that time has passed, we've documented...

ok. We don't need to rehash this. Euro opinion is good for Euros. I'm lost that you all think people with actual experience should ignore our experience and go by the rhetoric out of European Youtube videos. Youtube is the new google; you can find anything you'd like. It means nothing though...

I don't know OP's budget, but I would try to buy the newest one possible. On a model 3, I would focus on a 2022, if I could afford it. If not then a 2021, and so on. The quality on the model 3 has had dramatic improvements since 2018. Tesla doesn't refine anything before launch. This is the same...

OP should know that Tesla quality trends with age of the car. Notice that this would also show in Europe. But you don't like letting OP draw his own conclusions do you? I asked you to STOP pleading. Haha. I'm just messing. I appreciate the banter. I mean you no harm or anything. I don't like...

Many, if not MOST All Seasons rub. As do Any tires that are bigger than target (like Michelins). The point being that it isn't a robust fit. It's a personal preference. The last thing I would want to do is ruin the ride quality. IF I wanted more sidewall, I'd get different wheels. I also...

It's not just about digging. It's about talking facts instead of just what makes others feel good. Let's just keep an eye out on the new Highland launch. The 2024 MP3 from China is now getting out there and feedback is coming in. I would think that you'd be open to feedback from it as indicator...

Those are the factory 2024 MP3 wheels. Forged from the factory with Bilstein shocks. It's a HUGE improvement over my 2023 MP3

Hive knowledge. This is so funny. What is wrong with education? Hive knowledge, indeed.

Why would you poke if you really wanted it to stop? I love how you avoid the facts but have plenty to "say"

I disagree with you on both counts. I don't think that 255/35/20 fit without issues. Many brands rub. It also does matter what the outer diameter is. Bigger diameters make for more sluggish cars. And they exaggerate the traction control, so it kicks in more on leans. If the quality of the ride...

All my Teslas have had the Panasonic. All were also built in Fremont. What I said was that the prime parts are prioritized here. I didn't say that they can make enough of them yet. That's why it took a bit to get to the LR. Also, note that I didn't say the China made ones are any different. I...

It will come. And it is worth it.

100%. Each refresh has been significant. I love the '24 MP3. To your point, each of those areas has been addressed

LG vs Panasonic battery is a big enough difference that I won't bother to make a list. Now the LR has it, too. The US always gets the prime supply. And the US factory is the most agile, as are the zillions of centers around. The last thing I would want is a Chinese built Tesla.

This is confusing. Seems like OP is just in the boonies. Tesla doesn't assure service area. You can google the LTE network.

Whatever helps you feel better. In your world, I MAY be helping the sun rise. Right?

Look, we just disagree. You are obviously a faith-based person, and I am science based. Be you. You can believe that the UPTICK in Quality is due to China build. That is like saying that the sun rises in the morning, and I wake up in the morning; so, I must be rising the sun. Am I? Or is the sun...

Your 2022 SHANGHAI build quality is better than a 2020 FREMONT one because it is simply newer. So, to play the game of where it was built has done nothing but confuse people like OP. You keep feeling that your "experience" is so valuable. EV's aren't new. Getting OP the proper info is what...

So much conjecture in here. Like always, I love how the Euro folks are the experts at Fremont builds. Like I said before, informed people would look into design and tech, instead of trying to rationalize their particular situation. Most importantly, even with those OLD cars is that they have...

Again not the same cars. You are trying to compare a pre-refresh design to a post refresh design and call them the same. It's a fallacy. Go buy a new Fremont car then give this expert observation.

Be careful with seat covers, since these cars have airbags in them. It isn't safe.

You're concerned about the relative build quality of the same product from 2 different factories? That is your deciding factor when comparing OLD tech vs NEW tech? It's really sad how much BS has been fed into the Tesla community. Keep in mind that ALL Model 3s got a quality refresh in '21. ALL...

What year is your car? The older model 3s had too much tension and things like dropping something in the car could instigate a crack. That doesn't mean the cat did it. Accountability has gone to the wayside anymore. Blaming the one that happened to be there for a factory defect, maybe? I...

Yup, I have a similar one. The glass on the new car is identical to the older version

This thread is for the general discussion of the marketplace listing New TuxMat Floor mats for 2017-2023 Model 3. Please add to the discussion here.

Do a search on people that have used a meter to test it on the SIDE windows. I'm not just talking about Tesla's claims. I am talking about facts. I'm certain that the highland is UV and IR on side windows.

Two different use cases: 235/35/20 stretch on the Uberturbines. I run 265/30/20 on my '23 MP3 and it helped immensely, but you honestly have to rewire yourself. With these wheels, please don't ruin them with the janky rim "protectors"

By saying that it's not the worst and not the best job, are you saying that this is "typical" for your quality? That's concerning, if so

Tesla glass already blocks 99% of UV and IR. Already. #2, the shade of the TINT has nothing to do with heat protection. You can add another layer of 99% UV/IR that is CLEAR.

Whatever helps you rationalize your LR. Thanks, though

Front Tint should be enforced anywhere differently than side window tint. Windsheild tint can be dangerous because it hinders the driver's ability to see (regardless of what the driver thinks) whereas side tint is just a threat to the cop if they can't see inside. Two COMPLETELY different...

I had one done. Mine wasn't too bad.

Tint has nothing to do with Heat. You can also wear sunglasses. I'm dying to see you fight it. Tint isn't an issue in SoCal so don't lump CA into it. The Bay area is more Oregon than CA
