BosHK - how did this get resolved? I brought my 2014 Model S into the HK service center today and awaiting an answer from them. There was a service bulletin back in 2015 to fix the front seat belts for squeaking by installing a plastic guide on the trim where the belt comes out of the car...

Ian, Contact Jerry at the number above. Country code for HK is +852. One of the HK Tesla owners who has this system also installed four of these units on his own in the US. If you are comfortable removing panels on your car and basic car wiring it isn't that difficult but is time consuming...

Cableplus makes the boxes for EVPower You can also buy direct from them and save a lot of money if you do not need the token reader. 32A (40 rated) 1P is approximately HK$13k, 32A (40 rated) 3P is approximately HK$16k. Quote from last December. http://www.cplus.com.hk/news.php?&lang=1

It does not have motion detectors however none are needed for this solution. It is on 24 hours which effectively acts as car surveillance as well as the parking lot. I haven't turned it off in months except to change SD cards. A motion detector could be wired up, but the latency between the...

Re-posting images of the products. The first one is the DVR installed in a clip on review view mirror. The second one is the remote DVR inside the cubby. The third photo is the remote DVR pulled out of the cubby plus a remote display on the left side of the photo.

General rule of thumb used for trade ins is 50% of the cost of the repair is diminished value. A $5k repair would have an additional $2.5k of diminished value. Total claim is $7.5k. YMMV

If you use a tap a fuse on the glove box light circuit you can have always on 12v. The glove box light circuit is always "on". For export cars it is fuse 47. Not sure of US cars however it should be obvious if you look at the manual on the 17" screen fuse locations. If you want a circuit...

Frogwheels and derektom, Contact Jerry Cheng at 9439.6969. I helped Jerry and Sunny with the install above. I have a 7 camera installation with a remove DVR versus the rearview mirror mounted unit. The rear view mirror mounted unit was too large for my tastes and I wanted a more discrete...

I'm using a Samsung SSD with a hub from Amazon (Unitex USB 3.0 6 ports with 2 charging ports). I know that Tesla only has USB 2.0, however, this was a hub with powered ports supplied by an external power supply. I made a cable that plugs into the 12v power socket by the Tesla's USB ports to...

It's Yau Ma Tei Carpark building. When searching on the maps use intersection of Kansu street and Market Street. If you search for Yau Ma Tei carpark building sometimes the instructions will take you on Highway 5 which runs through the middle of the building. As well as kilometers out of your...

Wayner, We do not have Spotify here in HK. We use the tunein subscription supplied with the car. Which sounds worse than most MP3s. I do not know the stream rate for this service here. We also have lots of dropouts here in HK with losing the signal. I primarily use the internet radio for...

MingMan, Regarding the Ultra High Fidelity Sound System. It depends on your music source. If you plan on listening to high quality sources then the premium sound system is worth it. For example, you will be using the USB ports and music recorded in a lossless format like FLAC. If you will be...

Komills23, Great summary on getting HD music to play on your MS. It is worth the effort to go through this conversion to get the most out of the premium sound system. I followed a similar path except most of my music was in already in FLAC format. Currently using a 500 GB SSD and will upgrade...

Hiroshiy, I have a similar issue with my car in HK. I noted the misalignment of this piece around the window when my car was delivered in October (the first batch of non-sig RHD cars after the factory start up last August). Tesla is replacing this piece again for me. This is one big piece of...

4faijai, I suggest bringing a checklist to help you inspect your car when you get it. There are various checklists on this forum. I also created a multipage checklist that I have shared with a few others. Send me a PM (private message) for more details. There are several discussion on this...

This is beautiful and unique. Pleased to hear that your local service center was supportive of your efforts.

Pictures of debadged look but with rear lighted T and red letters on the Tesla. Now that the rear "T" is off you have no template to install it again. I had a similar problem when installing my lighted T as the shop doing the XPEL wrap took off the T before I could measure the location...

I will be working on a friend's car late next week that doesn't have premium lighting and check the connections on his car in the doors. Perhaps different VINs and markets have different settings. Will report back after that. XY46: 1: I don't have a part number for this light nor can I find a...

Joefee, A few thoughts on the front camera/switch. The front camera and wiring can be disconnected and the original wiring for the touchscreen restored to the original connections without the switch in about ten minutes on RHD cars and probably even faster on LHD cars. The switch module is...

I have the premium lighting on my car but have helped a few others retrofit lighting. Most of the wiring harnesses are in place you just need to hook up the lights. In the picture above there is a two pole male connector right above the speaker. This looks like the power feed to the door...

We have very narrow parking spots in HK with many garages having awkwardly placed columns that are hazards when turning the very wide Model S, parking or opening doors. It is not uncommon for most of us to let the passengers out before we park and then only the driver has to squeeze out of one...

Hi Rubbertoe, In HK the parking spots and parking garage entrances are typically very narrow. Many of the parking ramps as well as the streets have high curbs that can inflict severe wheel rim rash if hit. This particular dash cam installation with full side views on both sides of the car...

Hi Mark, FYI those pics you posted with alternate display mounting locations are from some experiments Jerry and I did with alternative display placements in my car. (Those photos are from the whatsapp group). Sunny's car has the display on the rear view mirror. I'll probably be going with...

Kiukku, I got my car around the same time as yourself. Service center has been super responsive for me. Echoing Mark, if you can provide them a list, preferably via email before you go in, they can better prepared to address the problems. Parking sensors - I know if they are disconnected...

I live in East NT so KT is the nearest supercharger and there are a lot fewer charging points in this part of HK than Kowloon or HK Island. I am dependent on public charging for the foreseeable future. Summary is after the first few weeks of range and charging anxiety it becomes pretty easy to...

Do the white lines for the rear camera on version 6.1 show up on the front camera display?

3fiftynine, I an on HK whatsapp group but not FB. Let's tentatively plan for next Wed at 12:30 at KT. You'll know my car as I have the front and rear lighted "T"s.

3fiftynine, I was trying to determine which key fob cover to use myself. I got some of the different Abstract Ocean leather and silicone key fobs and decided to use red and black silicone. Now I have two extra leather key fobs from abstract ocean if you want one (or both). I paid US$25 each...

DITB, After 7+ years of driving I still get lost. I consider it part of the adventure. The person who leads Google Maps here in HK indicated that Kowloon is one of the most difficult places to do driving direction maps because of the many one way streets, short distances, multiple lanes and...

SK1, Let me ask the fabricator next week if he uses different materials. I'll also spec out only a trunk and bumper protection version versus the full version. Note 1: I have the XPEL wrap on my bumper, but it won't protect against bicycle parts, luggage being slid across the bumper, etc...

All, On item D for the trunk mat - rear bumper protector question from SK1 I am getting quotes next week. I will also be covering the rear seats so they are protected when they are folded down to move big items. Will post quote afterwards. The big difference for the fabricator is if he makes...

DITB, I completely agree to regularly ask for super charger service and show demand at public places. Slightly off topic (mod: feel free to move): If using the EV Power sites and they are not working or not working properly, e.g., 10 amp service instead of 32 amp service, please call EV...

Update on Kai Tak supercharger slots: I met with the operations manager at Kai Tak last week. I was hoping to understand what it would take be able to reserve the supercharging slots for prime weekend times, paint them red or some other way to differentiate them and find out the cost for...

From the TED event several people asked where to get some of the items. Here is the short list with the links. Rim Protection: Wheel Bands from RimPro-Tec. I got mine from Amazon, see link below...

From the TED event several people asked where I got the rim protectors. Note: Suspension is in very high mode for my car park. Rim Protection: Wheel Bands from RimPro-Tec. I got my from Amazon, see link below...

Lerxt, I've sent you a PM to get the checklist. Reference post #680.

I wrote too soon; the cones at Kai Tak are apparently a gray area... On the 9th the cones were at Kai Tak when I started charging around 11:00 am with one other Tesla there and two open slots. By 11:30 the parking attendant had taken the cones to the Octopus entry point so they couldn't be...

I had my SIM card replaced yesterday. Thirty minutes.

My 3G service has not worked since Friday. Tesla called me Saturday morning to ask if I was still not connected. They recommended coming to the service center to get a new SIM. The technician indicated that some other owners had this problem. Anybody else on the forum have this problem? How...

Down to 45 km this morning and realized I am an electron junky. I ended up going to Kai Tak and fortunately three bays were open. The cones were missing and the parking lot was filling up fast. After a bit of searching I found the cones. Fellow public chargers I ask for your help on the...

I'll be there and also the TED talk afterwards.

I was at Kai Tak on Sunday (2 Nov) afternoon and the chargers were all ICE'd. Another Tesla owner came and called the police. The police indicated it was a private matter between Tesla and the car park agency. I called the Tesla hotline and dropped my DS and her boss a note to request some...

Help needed on locating #3 terminal for reverse signal. I’m installing the front camera kit on my RHD car here in HK. Interestingly enough the wiring harnesses are in the same location on RHD drive cars as LHD cars. I was expecting them to be reversed. As expected the colors on some of the...

I installed the lighted Ts on my RHD in Hong Kong right after delivery. Happy to say that detailed instructions provided by Rick were invaluable. I used the rear lighted T.pdf from 17 July 2014. I was installing the Ts right around the corner from the SC. My DS and SC team were impressed...

Lerxt, I did not get lane departure warning, speed assist or ACC. My car was in that first production batch after the start up in August. Same as DITB, River, etc. As I was working on the car all weekend the wiring harnesses in the front and rear appear to have a number of extra connections...

Currently stuck on power connections and looking for some fuse box descriptions. I am using the Oznium controller with a relay for the installation. On LHD cars what is the description of Fuse 75 on the manual? On my RHD car fuse 75 is not used. Fuse 76 description is ABS and power steering...

Picked up car yesterday on my way home from the airport. I had to delay delivery by 16 days due to client commitments (working on improving their precision delivery promises to their customers :smile:). Another 16 days after a 23 month wait from the deposit was easy. For those looking at page...

I will be picking up my car this weekend and will be having it wrapped with Xpel right after delivery. I will also be installing the lighted "T"s front and rear, the front camera and a few other accessories at the shop where it is getting wrapped. I am trying to figure out the order to put on...

Boot / Trunk protector HK Model S owners, I will be getting a protective mat made for the trunk and probably the frunk. These mats fold into the trunk when not in use and when need the you unfold them over the bumper. I have used this mat to protect the bumper from heavy luggage, bicycles...

I am very happy to see all the first production batch of cars getting delivered! My delivery is confirmed for 7 October. Then off to install accessories so I should be on the road by 13 October. This is 23 months after the reservation was made. I had to delay my delivery from last week to...
