    Will Tesla install solar + storage without NEM? i.e., one-way grid connection

    I am researching adding solar and battery storage to my home. Question: If I simply want to utilize only my own self-generated power, yet still be connected to the grid (basically, as a rarely-used "backup") will Tesla Solar install a system that is still connected to grid, but only to consume...

    Are the side-mirror housings actually painted, or just colored plastic?

    On the Model S, are the side-window housings actually painted to match the car (e.g. have an actual base coat, then clear coat, etc.) or are they simply shiny plastic that happens to closely match the finish of the painted metal work?

    OMG, how the heck is remote charge port unlock supposed to work?!

    Tire repair kit... included with new Teslas in CA or not?

    I recently took delivery of my new Model S. At delivery, not finding one in the car, I asked about the tire repair kit. The DS seems pretty sure it wasn't supposed to be included, and that I could buy one, but he seemed not totally sure it should have been included. I read somewhere that...

    VIN for Teslas encode "model year" or "year of manufacture"?

    I have a Model S on order, which has been confirmed and VIN assigned. The order was placed in Dec 2016 and is currently scheduled to be delivered Jan/Feb 2017. The VIN has a "G" in the 10th position. "G" means 2016, but my SA tells me that his records show that the car is a 2017 model year...
