    Wheel Covers Other Than Aero

    i purchased these Yikun covers off AliExpress. pros: comes with left and right pairs (many of the knock-offs have 4 identical covers, which means 2 will be installed "backwards" with more drag), clean design (i didn't want the chunkier notched center look), easy install, color matches MY...

    Holiday update? what can we expect?

    i'd think these are decent possibilities: - remote boombox (already in app?) - remote fart (already in app?) - zoom (coming at some point per Zoom Product Manager, remote use of interior cam already in app?) - apple music (shown in unreleased software at museum exhibit, Elon and Tim Cook...

    AliExpress Wheel Covers

    interesting, thanks. i note that the TPARTS covers he tested are all for "left-side" wheels, so the ones he mounted on the right side of his car have the fat side forward as the car drives...results would probably improve with right-left pairs. i ordered these Yikun covers on Aliexpress...they...

    Best White Dashboard cover to hide white interior

    Hills makes some CF and dark wood MY dash covers (and matching door covers and console covers (gens 1 and 2)). i like the white look on the dash and doors but did get a gen 2 console cover and the fit is excellent. they ship from Europe so it took a few weeks to get to me, but well worth it imho,

    Tinting Sunroof?

    According to this video, the MY OEM roof glass does a good job of blocking the heat (the video was made by a pro tinter): He says he won't tint the MY roof as it could lead to the glass breaking. As i understand it, tinting the roof glass voids the warranty and Tesla will charge to have it...

    Dead Pedal

    A dead pedal originated in old manual cars to give the left foot a brace co-planar with the clutch. In modern automatics, its a comfortable place to put the left foot and is usually covered in plastic/rubber. The MY has a bump-out left footrest area but it is carpeted; this project adds the...

    Dead Pedal

    Yes, I stuck a couple strips of the hook side of the Velcro to the back of the dead pedal, and the carpeting acts as the loop side of the Velcro. It was a bit of a pain getting the adhesive off the back of the dead pedal before applying the Velcro...using a decal remover eraser wheel makes the...

    Dead Pedal

    i installed this Dixuan dead pedal cover on my MY. I wanted one with raised ribs to match the aftermarket performance pedals i installed, but i prefer the black look on the dead pedal...so i Hyperdipped that one. I took the tape off the dead pedal and used 2" Velcro strips instead. The...

    FSD price increase on Jan 17

    I think the take rate may have gone up with the release of 10.8. TeslaFi shows over 14% of its users are on 2021.44.25.6 and StatsApp shows a jump across all models coinciding with the release.

    540 Vehicle Server Error

    I got this error after updating to 2021.44.25.6 and filed a service request. Tesla responded that it is a known issue, and advised to do the two-button reboot. That seems to have fixed it, although I won't be surprised if it happens again given what I'm reading on the forums.

    Possible to remove these stains on white seats?

    These Oxi Clean Car Wipes work great on blue jeans staining on the white seats in my MY...might be worth a try on the mystery stain.

    All weather mats…. Tis the season (POLL)

    Before my LDCRS mats came in, I installed a dead pedal cover. I just left it under the mats when they arrived. There's a pic in this post: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/model-y-performance-pedals.217327/#post-6019963

    All weather mats…. Tis the season (POLL)

    Add another vote for LDCRS! Just had their first snow experience and performed flawlessly. The design fits the Tesla aesthetic perfectly imho. Great communication during the order/shipping process too.

    Hills Wood Dash

    A couple of months in my case. They had supply issues due to Covid, and FedEx lost my package in Memphis for a week so hopefully yours is more timely. I see all variants currently ship in 3-4 weeks according to the website, and shipping should be a week or two max. It's worth the wait!

    Hills Wood Dash

    I installed the ebony version today on my MY. It does seem relatively durable, but time will tell. I'm with @DarthStar, installing it was easy. It took a while to ship from Switzerland but Hills was very responsive throughout. Another satisfied customer! :)

    Huge update, V11...thoughts? and any hidden features found yet??

    It seems to me using the steering wheel button to advance between radio stations is much more responsive - before this update I'd have to pause on each station briefly before going on to the next one, now i can click several times and the radio tuner jumps ahead. ymmv!
