Rear seats most likely wont be a retrofit candidate, there isn’t any enhanced bolstering on them. Just sharpie in the areas :)

they are similar but different. S seats are larger and more premium looking/feeling, 3 is more compact. Regular seats are the same, same overall shape but different between the 3/Y and S/X

Had a chance to sit in the Bellevue Square showroom’s 3 performance. Those seats are GOOD. Super comfy, and the bolstering is enough to really hug you. Absolutely placing a retrofit order when it becomes available if the 3 seats are that good. for any seattle area peeps, they should have an S...

Awesome. So like i thought, purely cosmetic. Still looks awesome, enjoy the car!!!!

most likely a 1:1 replacement, though who knows, you could ask. PN still exist for ordering (including, funnily enough, black piping with wood trim for early plaids), and unless they ****ed up the renders it looks like the Long Range's now come with the contrast piped seats.

Rear seats are changed slightly, they have additional bolsters in the same suede as well as the bottom bench having the same bolster treatment. Not sure if it's worth retrofitting tbh (looks like it is possible though). Doesn't look like they actually have any difference in support, just for...

Can you share a few photos of the rear seats? wondering if the bolstering there is also improved or if it's purely cosmetic. It appears to be a deeper bottom.

Sport Seats (Called Track Internally) are up on the EPC. Both Front/Rear seat components. Front Seats Back Seats Those with business accounts can see pricing, curious on part cost. Theoretically if the seat frame/motors/hardware are the same for the regular and sport seats the cost for...

Wiring was gone for mine when installed my solution for lighting, feb 24 build. Fwiw that theory of operation doc may have been like that for a while, it lines up pretty cleanly with the original pre-launch renders of what the planned lighting was supposed to be. If you poke around the...

imagine the retrofit will be for driver + passenger only, about 2100$ a seat if you were to get one replaced currently, so around 5k. I doubt they would replace the rear bench as well as part of the retrofit, but maybe.

I’d imagine the seats are retrofittable given the base S still uses the regular seats. Probably expensive given the seats have an airbag in them now, but who knows.

Really awkward picture angle BUT i got the footwell lights hooked up and working. Stupid me burnt one of the strips out as i attempted to pass 12v into the 5v strip, but a quick USB buck converter, a 2.5mm barrel jack splitter, and a usb to 2.5mm barrel jack power connecter fixed that right up...

I heavily taped the wires to a broken piece of the LED strips i was using and used that as a pull tool. Push it through the back of the grommet from the door side until you can pull it through the driver footwell, then use strong tape (i used electrical) to seal the wire to the led strip, then...

Taped it using super thin double sided tape to the chrome trim, then repeatedly applied percussive maintenance to the soft vinyl trim until it snapped back into place from the back to the front. I think what helped was not completely removing the trim piece and instead peeling it back while a...

Slightly off topic: Caught my eye in the latest dev blog: cybertruck themed versions of the sport seats! wondering if this is going to become a universal option, with inserts for each model designation.

That looks great! What was your method of getting the godforsaken wires through the grommet? Wondering if there is a better way. Also did you have to remove any of the clip retainers on the door card? Or ones still attached to the clip? Noticing mine is slightly misaligned and i need to fix it.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B63CK42R/ref=twister_B0C77Q9CBB?_encoding=UTF8&th=1&tag=tmc064-20 Used this kit (one control box variant) and purchased 2 extra 43in strips as well. If you are wanting to simplify your wiring and are tapping power from somewhere other than the cc power socket choose...

For those of us that want ambient lighting but have taken delivery, have some technical/mechanical know-how, 200$ (less if you have the tools), access to a socket wrench with a 2in extension and a 10mm deep socket, a torx bit driver, and isn't afraid to pull really damn hard to get some of these...

Linking the various service docs I used as well: Center Console Side Panel (YOU DO NOT NEED TO REMOVE THE ASSEMBLY, USE A WEDGE AND PRY TOOL TO POP THE PANEL) Center Console Carpet (SEE ABOVE) Phone Dock Instrument Panel Service Panel Touchscreen (HW4, if HW3 choose the HW3 Variant) Door Wire...

Thanks for this! about to start on the doors here soon. I chose the single control box variant of this kit, which is currently in the lower cubby bin. I pulled all the wires so that as little of them exist in the cubby space as possible, and then once they were run to where they needed to be...

turned out pretty well. Now onto the doors. @Proppilot let me know if you find anything useful with the doors. I’m probably starting later in the day.

I would definitely remove the side panels (not all the way, just peel the front section back and loosen the top panel all the way if running lights on the center console). Makes routing easier. I had to remove the screen to hide the dash wiring behind the shroud. It’s also a requirement for...

Exhausted, but the job is done. I ran into a few issues(?) getting access to various things/removing things because my car was so well put together. There were extra clips in a few places for harnesses and they must have added super glue to the phone dock clips because GOOD GOD i couldn’t get...

Stuff came in. Was able to confirm that with a butt not in the seat and the door shut the center console power socket produces 0v, even when sentry is triggered. So that works! A note on that dreamcolor amazon kit: The connectors are 4pin JST PH 2mm connectors (while only using 3 of the pins)...

It’s hardwired. You can actually easily remove it by giving it a tug, it’s 4 clips. Pull from the bottom corners and lift up.

Yep I've been consulting the wiring/connector ref as well as the service manual while planning this out. My particular wants is something that stays on no matter the ambient light setting while the car is on (i can dim from app or press the switch in the center console to toggle), so I'm not...

Thanks for the info! It’s weird that the behavior differs between the 3/S, but that power point fulfills my needs perfectly. I think I’m going to go with the above linked Dreamcolor kit but with the single control box, then just run the wires with extenders throughout the instrument panel...

Does sentry mode effect this? I’d rather not have the vehicle flash the interior LED’s every time someone walks past my car. Also, i’ve been thinking about the 12v/control module run for the doors. a good angle of attack would probably be to remove the door card, remove the speaker, and then...

@vcor confirming that the 2021+ refresh s’s should output no power from the center console power socket when the car is off but sentry is on? Is the car considered “on” when the LV battery is charging? Or is it only “on” when someone is in the car/drive rails engaged. Ideally i’d like a power...

Fender Flares, anyone? Retrofit so the procedure can be done to existing cars

Yeah I found them in the model S service manual about the same time as greentheonly found the UI visualizations of them for the 3. The service page was quickly taken down after my reddit post, assuming an internal page was set for external publishing

Yeah i ended up getting the black/silver variant of those caps from amazon, happy with the contrast on em. Uncovered stocks are pretty great, i know it’s a love/hate relationship with the tuning fork look but it shows off the calipers better so.

This paint ****s. So happy with Ultra Red. The shift in light/dark environments is awesome. They absolutely are, it’s a small section on the rear fenders where road kickup would likely hit the most. Not the full thing mind you, but nice to see on delivery.

Immaculate delivery experience. Car is in perfect shape except for one small, tiny scratch on the hood where a rock probably hit it on the transport, and maybe a medium gap on the driver’s side trunk where it meets the roof pillar, but honestly compared to my last S this is a dream. Factory...

They haven’t changed the language at all since it was first implemented. I imagine it’s a catch-all, a “we warned you we take no liability” thing, but FSD minus summon/autopark is absolutely available for HW4 vehicles such as yours. In fact, the new beta just rolled out to tesla employees yesterday.

So the old Model S manual actually explained this, with the + modes being replaced with Drag Strip Mode in the palladium refresh. Chill: limits acceleration for a smooth and gentle ride (available on all vehicles equipped with Autopilot hardware). Standard: provides the normal level of...

Yep! Wife is getting our current LR.

i’ll try to get some information out of some of the people I know when I take delivery on tuesday (and hopefully walk away with a perfect car in the process.)

VIN Assigned! Feb 18th -23rd Est delivery. Model S Plaid, UR, 19”, Steering Wheel, Black and White, Seattle Area. Ordered 1/23.

Congrats! Your vehicle is on it’s way if you have this agreement. Good news: FSD works on HW4 vehicles, like the one you are getting. bad news is: no one knows when the remaining features (namely autopark and summon) will be available for HW4 vehicles.

EDD range is slowly closing… keeping an outer date of march 2nd while moving the lower date up to whatever todays date is each day, currently feb 12 - mar 2nd. Exciting! Seattle area.

For those asking about the new yoke: here it is.

2023 plaids have 396/348 est range for 19/21 tires.

Date shifted for a Seattle Area Plaid/UR/19/wheeel from Feb 6th-27th to Feb 10th-Mar 2nd.

With it being a long range, perhaps either a showroom/demo vehicle they’ve tagged for the new model year? That or they forgot to remove it before shipping.

It is for the footwell/door pocket lights. Hard to see except at night.

Apparently both the “existing cybertruck reservation owners get 1k off” and the Supercharging transfer promotion are back on for those who take delivery by 3/31.

Weird that they are doing west coast deliveries first. Usually they like to export then go from farthest domestic to closest domestic. Seattle delivery estimate is feb 6- 27th. Some long range’s have made their way into inventory too.

yep! This was right around the time greentheonly found it in the app code for the 3, but this was part of the model s service manual. it’s definitely still there, just none of us can see it. I’m sure whoever publishes the service docs accidentally marked the procedure/related as public.

Long time, no post! Ordering our second S. MSP/UR/BW/19 just moved from Feb-Mar to a more concrete date of Feb 6-27th. Hopefully that means they’ve restarted production! Excited to grab mine, with or without the upgrades. side note, i was the guy on reddit who found the sports seats in the...
