    Suggestions for places to sell Tesla?

    Hey guys... I've decided to sell my 2021 M3 Performance and start listing it this weekend after I detail it and take some glamor shots. My question is: outside of posting to this forum, where have you had success selling your Tesla? I usually trade in but this time I am opting for a private...

    2021 M3P 20" Uberturbines For Sale - San Diego

    4 x 2021 Tesla Model 3 Uberturbine wheels for sale. 2,437 miles on them. They're awesome, but decided to downgrade to 19's. No changes to stock configuration; removed from vehicle and now for sale. Details: - 1 curb rash (see close up photo) - 1 tire (far left) has about 300 miles on it which...

    Going from 20" Uberturbines to 19's

    On another note, has anyone painted their brake rotor hats? I've never liked the gray and I've noticed (I think) the Model Y hats are black from the factory (or maybe some video I saw recently --- the guy did what I want to do). I figure masking it off and hitting it with some black high temp...

    Going from 20" Uberturbines to 19's

    I did! They arrived a few days later and took me about an hour to swap them out. My Tesla TPMS picked up the sensors within a mile or two of driving off. They arrived in excellent condition, and were good to go upon delivery! I still miss my 20's but these are more practical and still look awesome.

    Going from 20" Uberturbines to 19's

    That is awesome you can change the pic... I didn't even think about that! So the 19" TS5's with new rubber is the same or "close enough" to what I have now with the Uberturbine 20's ? BTW you were right... Service > Wheel Configuration. After selecting the Zero-G, it waited a few seconds and...

    Going from 20" Uberturbines to 19's

    Follow-up questions for ya... I know they come with TPMS sensors already... so when I get them, they're pretty much good to go? I just put them on and my car knows how to find them based on wheel position? Also, did you have to change the wheel/tire size at all in settings for the car? If so...

    Going from 20" Uberturbines to 19's

    Brilliant! I'll plan on this for when the time comes. I'm loving those wheels... I always liked the idea of putting on Tesla's Zero-G wheels but not the cost and the size. This is perfect. I also ordered the black lug covers and Tesla caps. Looks clean!!

    S3XY! They arrive tomorrow and I can't wait to get them on. You have the front license plate wrap as well! I have one but won't put it on until I'm forced to do so LOL. Did you get the satin gray or black TS5's? Hard to tell from the pic.

    Transplanting the key card RFID to my phone Case

    With my iPhone 13, I have to separate the case from the phone in order for it to work. I've tried multiple locations for the RFID and it's always the same problem. Not a big deal, for the very few times I need to use it.

    FOR SALE: 20” Uberturbine Wheels, Tires and TPMS in SoCal!!

    I'm curious what you sold them for. I'm also in San Diego and am about to sell mine from my 2021 M3P with ~2,700 miles on them. Did you sell them for $2200? I'm hoping to get at least $2500 for mine.

    Going from 20" Uberturbines to 19's

    I pulled the plug on the satin black 19" TS5's with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S Performance Summer tires, jack pucks, touch up paint, and the Tesla M3 factory center cap set + wheel lug nut cover set (it looks sick). I also like this setup because everything on the outside of my M3P is black or...

    Going from 20" Uberturbines to 19's

    I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with the TSportline TS5 (black) in 19's with the Michelins. These TS5's are knockoffs of the Tesla Zero-G wheels I wanted but Tesla's are also available only in 20". The Uberturbine TSV knockoffs don't look that great to me in 19" form... too much rubber for that...

    Going from 20" Uberturbines to 19's

    WOW! Thank you for unloading all your thoughts and experiences... I greatly appreciate your insight. A set of the TSV 19" wheels that look like the Uber's isn't bad at $2k. I know the cost of the tires will be more than going with 18s but it will be worth it to try and maintain the similar look...

    Going from 20" Uberturbines to 19's

    Thank you! I have seen those before and they're probably by go-to unless I can find something I like better. You're right, I love the look of the car so 18s probably will ruin it for me.

    Window tint recommendation (San Diego / Poway)

    Thank you for responding! I've had 2 "fix it tickets" over the years with two separate vehicles. Usually delivered by cops that had nothing better to do but harass good people ;) Good tip about the auto dimming. I think my 21 M3P has it. I'll shop around locally... Carlsbad is too far of a hike...

    Going from 20" Uberturbines to 19's

    I have a 2021 M3P and I actually really love the wheels. The thing is, around San Diego the roads are absolute crap. I feel like I have to drive super careful all the time at the risk of blowing out my tires with the 20" Uberturbine stock wheels. I hit an unavoidable lane-wide deep road repair...

    Window tint recommendation (San Diego / Poway)

    I'm looking for a recommendation in the San Diego/Poway/Miramar area for tint for my 2021 M3P. More general questions about window tinting these days... 1. What amount of tint is legal for the front side windows in California, if any? Trying to decide whether to go with something like 20% or...

    ~$17 a month for Digital Rplate

    It's used for a bunch of things (most of which nobody asked for), including initial activation, customizing the plate, reporting to the cloud if the plate is removed or car is stolen, annual DMV registration tag updates, and more like their vehicle locator feature. The latter I most definitely...

    LightShow: Multiple USB thumb drives

    With so many songs available now at the repository, I figured I'd grab a bunch of cheap low-capacity USB thumb drives so I could put one song on per thumb drive since you can only have one song per drive. Is this still correct, and if so, what size thumb drive would work at a minimum? Would a...

    2021.44.30 Rolling out

    The volume on my phone was low, and I did have it set to Bluetooth to play music from my phone. But I always do. That was deafening and Tesla's smart software should have prevented it from happening as a safety precaution.

    2021.44.30 Rolling out

    Just got it tonight for my 21 M3P. After the update, I got into my car the the volume was at 100% -- blasted my ears out when the music started playing. I never have the volume at such levels so it shocked the crap out of me, not to mention blasted out my eardrums. Be careful out there folks...

    Reviver Plate Discount

    I'm quite happy with mine... looks incredible. And honestly, it gives us another CA license plate option: white on black (or) black on white which aren't available as metal plate options. You can only get the standard blue on white or vanity yellow on black. Still, to date, I have yet to see a...

    ~$17 a month for Digital Rplate

    Unless you just have gobs of funny money and don't care, I can't see anyone with a brain spending $1,000 on a digital license plate replacement. It just doesn't make ANY sense. For the discount price of ~$200 it was able to justify it but they really need to bring the price down and keep it...

    Reviver Plate Discount

    Nice! I just got mine today, they approved everything within a few hours and I'm all set up. Love it. Only issue I ran into was none of the fasteners they included were the right length so I just ended up using two of the OEM license plate screws and they worked perfectly for their mounting plate.

    ~$17 a month for Digital Rplate

    It’s $55/year not /mo and I don’t keep a front plate on. If I’m forced to, I’ll probably get the sticker option.

    ~$17 a month for Digital Rplate

    Discount code: REVIVER Price $199 Ends Jan 7, 2022 I've been researching this for a few hours after remembering that digital license plates exist in CA. For the price (currently $899) it wasn't even a consideration. But I found a post that makes it $199 using discount code "REVIVER" so I've...

    Reviver Plate Discount

    Ordered. Thank you. It actually comes out to $254 because of the first year of service ($55). Total is $273.69 with tax. Far better than $899 (which I would have never paid).

    I would rate it medium but I’ve installed a ton of aftermarket products over the past few decades so others might find it difficult. There’s definitely room to screw things up. Their install video is awesome so just take it slowly and re-watch sections over and over until you get it. I don’t...

    Cool. Just pay attention to the tracking number once you get it. It should show received in China and then it may sit there for the majority of the shipping time but then all a sudden it will be in the U.S. and out for delivery. Once you see movement then you can feel satisfied that you'll be...

    MIA: Teslaoffer/EVoffer

    He responded to me within hours (of course account for the time difference in China). He got a new unit out the next day and I received it within a week (my notes are above in this thread). As for Telegram, I ran into the same issue being a new user. Just follow the instructions they give you...

    MIA: Teslaoffer/EVoffer

    Weird. I received a tracking number quickly, but it never shipped. The *only* way to contact them and get a response is through the Telegram messaging app (which nobody uses). I'm sure you'll get a response. If you don't, and you pass 21 days (which it sounds like you have) then do a chargeback.

    Installed the swivel mount this morning...

    I heard it was 1 to 1-1/2" inches lower. I didn't measure before and after but no, it's not an issue at all for me or passengers. I don't see how it could make the glare worse.... at least now you can swivel it a bit to remove any sun glare whereas before you couldn't!

    YouTube tv broken: “Sorry there was an error licensing this video.”

    I’m also glad to hear they’re working on it but it was working fine for me about 2 or so weeks ago. I was with family waiting in the car and watching TV just fine. Today I tried it again and got that error. I didn’t upgrade my Tesla at all so they broke support somehow :(

    Righteous bucks! You scored....

    Installed the swivel mount this morning...

    Yep, based on my research looking at the parts, they appear to all be from the same Chinese manufacturer. Sometimes they are re-packaged to look different but in the end--it's the same kit. $143 at Amazon with the 10% off coupon (Amazon.com) was a no-brainer.

    UPDATE: When I contacted him via Telegram, he responded and said he'd ship out a new unit. He did, and I received a DHL shipping confirmation the next day. I received it a week or so later (yesterday). I installed it last night and thanks to his video on YouTube (EVOffer channel, see link...

    Installed the swivel mount this morning...

    I installed the 30° swivel mount on my 21 M3P and I absolutely love it. Like all the reviews/videos state, it looks like it could be from the factory and Tesla needs to implement this. The plastic parts are a little cheap, but that doesn't detract from the aesthetics and the mount itself is...

    I'm fairly positive that if I asked 100 random people if they use Telegram, that's exactly what they would think of and say "No, why would I when there's email?" 😂

    MIA: Teslaoffer/EVoffer

    You are correct. It is $521. Way more than I thought I'd ever pay for something that opens and closes a frunk... but hey. Telegram (which I guarantee you nobody I personally know has even heard of) is the only way to get a response. They need to understand that while Telegram might be big in...

    There is no such tesla_offer account. They rebranded from Teslaoffer and renamed it to evoffer_hk and never updated their website. Also, I'm not emailing for support... I'm replying to their order email for a sales/order update. They should at least be professional enough to respond.
