I appreciate your experience with the F9. I don't have the need for the Carplay and Android Auto as I see many others have had, but I do have a problem with the interaction between the Tesla center screen and the F9 screen. Specifically, the steering wheel right hand thumbwheel appears to...

This is an old post, but I eventually passed a wire through one of the "nipples" on the Driver's side large rubber grommet, thereby staying away from the OEM factory wires. As I stated in another post, on the M3, the wire conduit is rather hidden on passenger side, compared to the driver's side...

It does fit my 2023 M3 produced in Fremont, but I have noticed a strange "foggy/hazy" blemish on the corner of the passenger side of the dashboard (about one inch in diameter). I didn't notice this hazy patch on initial installation of my non-glossy CF replacement, but I may have missed it...

I see that your post was a while ago, but I have the carbon fiber replacement dashboard for my 2023 M3, and it fits my M3 manufactured in Fremont. It was just kind of expensive

Finally, a decent instrument display for a car that should have had driver's an instrument display in the first place. I may not have installed all the Hansshow displays but probably most of them, and I have described my experiences with the many (perhaps too many) models before I stalled the...

I appreciate and agree with your calm and intuitive assessment of the situation, free from font text size psychoanalysis. This weekend I'll be running the new H6 video cable for the front bumper camera. It looks fantastic.

Dude???? Very impolite salutation. I'm not saying I dislike Tesla cars, but I would have preferred more obvious changes for something that was hyped so much. Is it so unreasonable to expect a front facing camera or a few safety features at minimal cost? I doubt if a few extra parts would...

Check back in five years.

Your responses to my comments are exceptionally detailed and thought provoking. It's the same car. It's the same car. It's the same car.

1.) Larger font is for emphasis, otherwise there wouldn't be available larger fonts on a forum. 2.) You got me on the Newton. That was a long time ago (but I'm still right about the little iPhones). 3.) I still maintain that the Highland Update is disappointing. Look at all the Chinese...

I've seen all the early Model 3 Highland "fluff" reviews from other countries, and I assume that the updated US version of the Model 3 is basically the same. They all say the same thing...... 50% of the parts are redesigned; therefore improved mileage; better aerodynamic design; new exciting...

For the 2023 M3 vehicles it's no easy task to get through the firewall (misnomer - no heat from ICE). For all the older year cars, there are several holes and plugs to punch through. For 2023 all the holes are gone. There are two large grommets up under the dash. The one on the right (passenger...

Thanks for your comment, and you may be correct about driving the vehicle for >6 months. Though it is nice to have not only the driver-centric speedometer but also to have the continuous tire pressure monitoring system (in direct view) in a car without a spare tire and no run-flat tires. I...

Note to Self: Don't start an OTA update and then go into the food store and buy ice cream. A quoted 25 minute update time turned out to be well over an hour. I called Tesla support to tell them that the car was undrivable. They only took a recorded complaint. Apparently, melting ice cream does...

Thank you for your input. Everyone who has seen my driver-side instrument panel addition has given only positive comments. The screen resolution and color rendition match the OEM center display quite closely. Not one negative comment.

Facts are facts. Numbers don't lie. Perhaps someone can present factual information based on vehicles that somebody actually bought.

Point #1: Very interesting. I guess there were other vehicles such as the BMW Z8 without a driver-centric instrument panel. Now let me see.....About how many Z8's were sold in the last 20 years. It appears to be very close to zero vehicles, since the last year of Z8 sales was 2003. Maybe not...

I agree with your reluctance to add stuff that should have been already there. I installed the Hansshow 9" display which was super easy (in retrospect), but I wanted the front camera display, so I bought the 10.25" display which was a pain to install, because you have to run a power line and...

I appreciate your comment, but perhaps you might explain why every other car on the planet including the Model S and X have a gauge package right in front of the driver? Could 7.89 billion people be wrong? Please compare the attached pictures with the average Model 3. NIH NIH NIH Maybe you...

I put the words "NO NEW NEWS on the M3 Update" in the title, because I'm tired of viewing videos and news reports about "M3 Highland secrets revealed," based on vapor. Lets be real. Nobody really knows much of anything on the internet based on reality. All these YouTube Tesla "experts" show the...

Now that I've taken the suggestions listed above and reinforced the poorly designed 1131205-00-C clips on my 2023 M3LR, I have noticed that the same Fronk Rear Apron has another two Apron Trim Clips closer to the windshield that also don't engaged with the holes in the ASY Cowl Screen. The Cowl...

I feel your pain. I struggled for a long time trying to get the power wire and the front camera cable through the firewall. (Although firewall may be a misnomer, because there is no IC engine.) Almost all the videos on this subject are WRONG, because they apply to older M3's. All the holes that...

I have seen one of the videos mention the gap. It seems like it would have been an easy problem to fix. Perhaps it is only my opinion, but Hansshow (if this is their product) seems to bring out a lot of new and interesting products but rarely wants to revise the older products. For instance...

Good comment, although apparently you can drive a Tesla off a mountain cliff (twice??) and still survive. I hope that guy in the news report had the front end PPF applied before he drove off the cliff.

I appreciate the comment, and I agree with your logic, but I'm just surprised that there is no hardness markings (Property Class) on the replacement bolts compared to the originals. Hopefully, it is not a cost saving consideration. You know ..... Delete the U/S sensors, remove the radar system...

I unscrewed the external Torx e10 bolts holding the knee airbags to allow easier access to the "firewall," but I later discovered that the service manual states that the proper reassembly process should include new and unused External Torx e10 - 19mm bolts. The original bolt head has a metric...

My installation looks the same way. I have tried refitting many times. It seems as though the aftermarket company didn't make the cover piece large enough to cover the metal structure and the hooks not long enough to grab the underside of the upper dash panel. I tried grinding out the back of...

Not so sure you want to go along side of the rubber grommet, because the grommet is used to protect the wires going through the hole. Typically the holes are punched through the firewall at the factory during stamping and assembly, and the heavy grommet is used to protect the conduit and the...

The diffuser was only included with the 9" display.

I noticed that, too. I thought it was supposed to swivel vertically, not just horizontally. I also had a few other problems. The monster allen wrench doesn't seem to tighten the assembly but rather just turn the whole thing. The only way to stabilize the assembly is to tighten the large upper...

Any reason why the above video is unavailable, because I could use it.. I have a radar-less ultrasound-less 2023 Model 3 and I need to to run power and camera wires for the Hansshow 10.25 inch Tesla instrument display with the camera option, but I cannot get the wires through the firewall. I...

Sorry for misspelling Hansshow.

I attempted to resolve the problem of "no radar triggering" by contacting Hannshow Tech Support by WhatsApp and email, but I didn't get vey far. Then I got tired of waiting and then just temporarily hooked up the system with a few jumper wires. It appears as though in a "radar-less" Model 3 one...

I am upgrading from the Hansshow 9 inch Tesla Instrument Display to the 10.25 inch display on my 2023 Model 3, primarily because the larger display includes the front camera. The manual states "Note: When the radar is triggered, it will automatically enter forward looking for 10 seconds."...
