    A-pillar speaker grille -- how to remove?

    So after being driven insane by a mysterious rattle whenever I went over a bump, I found the source of the rattle to be a semi-loose speaker grille on the A-pillar. Since going to a service center is not really a convenient option, does anyone know the steps to popping that grille out so I can...

    API question -- battery drain constant with "always connected" or dependent on apps?

    Been going through the API thread and didn't see a confirmed answer to this: Assuming the car is set to Energy Saving=Off and Always Connected=true, is the battery drain constant regardless of the # of apps that are pinging the car, or does each App create a separate drain on the car?

    Faster discharge from 100% -> 80% vs 80% -> 0%?

    Recently I upgraded by 60D to a 75D and noticed that for some reason my average wh/mile has increased for the same route that I took on 60D. I did a few runs and it seems like when I'm starting from 100% the battery drains faster than when 80%-0%. I've seen similar behavior on phones that use...

    weird question -- is the 60D slightly slower since it's not 100% charge of the battery?

    DragRacing youtube channel recently did a test of battery charge level's effect on the acceleration on a P100D: Looking at pure kW output, it looks like P100D puts out 559kw at 76% and ~576kw at 99%. That got me to thinking -- since the 60D at 100% is approximately 86% of the 75kw battery...

    Is charge rate slowdown dependent on input charge rate?

    So we know that charge rate slows down as the car gets close to 100%. Does the charge rate slow down as a percentage of the input charge rate, or is it an absolute value? I understand that the supercharger may drop from ~120kw to say 50kw, but will my home charger with a much lower input charge...

    Calipers -- Black with red text or Red with silver text?

    I was originally going to paint my calipers the traditional red with silver TESLA text on a black car, then spied one of Al & Ed's cars where they left the calipers black but painted the letters red -- looks pretty good, classy and understated: BEHIND THE BUILD: Project LBR Tesla Model S...

    Pictures of GREY Chrome Delete?

    I wonder if anyone has seen any pictures of Chrome deletes in a gunmetal or metallic grey instead of the usual satin/matte black? I've got grey aftermarket wheels and I wonder if it'll look good to match the wheels or go with the traditional black.

    Anti-glare film on Glass roof?

    Hey guys, just got my Model S with the all-glass roof and loving the open feeling that it gives. Just one thing -- I have the ultra-white interior and combined with the dark factory tint on the roof, i'm seeing more of the inside of the car than the outside! Has anyone ever tried applying some...

    Source for Ultra-White leather?

    I remember at some point on this forum somebody had linked a source to buy the raw material for the Ultra White leather that Tesla uses in their interior, but for some reason I can't find it at all. Does anyone know where I might find it?

    Pics of Chrome Delete leaving handles?

    Does anyone have any pics of a Model S (preferably solid black) with chrome delete on the window trim and side-sill only? I'm planning to wrap it but don't want to go for the full-out murdered look. Figure if I only wrap the window trim and side-sill it'll form a chrome 'belt-line' that looks...
