    Gruber Roadster shocks?

    thanks for bringing up the reservoir. I didn't even think about that. I guess mine is a 2.0 sport, the bracket should already be there for an easy swap. Thanks for the input on the Nitrons. This makes swapping the shocks more enticing. I know these just came out, but I was hoping someone...

    Gruber Roadster shocks?

    Was going to do the InoKinetic nitrons a while back but never got around to it. Recently got the mailer from Gruber on their new inTrax Roadster shocks. Just curious if anyone here tried them? Any feedback? I found a local shop that's familiar with the Roadster, but still runs the risk of...

    Open Vehicle Monitor System (OVMS) - Technical Discussion

    That make sense. Let me do more digging with the documentation to see what I find. Out of curiosity for a totally newb question, config sent through the shell, is it modifying anything on the vds directly/permanently or is it only stored in the ovms and sent the request as needed. Once...

    Open Vehicle Monitor System (OVMS) - Technical Discussion

    Recently took the car (2.0 Sport) out of storage and was updating my OVMSV3.1 to the latest firmware. After upgrade, as soon as I plug it into the car, I get the communication error on the VDS and pop-up notification on the OVMS app. Of course, I disconnect right away and the message goes...

    Hello, World

    Welcome!! I just got my annual service done at Burlingame SC along with few other tidbits fixed. Mostly cause I live around about. While shooting the breeze with the service adviser, he said they usually get about the same 3 roadster getting stuff done there, not including mine. He also told...

    Good SF Bay Area shop for suspension work

    Awesome!! thanks for the insight. I been reading through other threads in piece meal. This is actually a really good overview and much easier to understand. Sounds like my next best step would be to make some phone calls to find the lead time and availability. The project started as wanting...

    Good SF Bay Area shop for suspension work

    Any recommendations? I was planning to go with the inokin monoball spherical bearing and NITRON 46MM RACE PRO 1-WAY default rate. Should I look for custom rate? Would a uniball be better?

    Finally! A modern stereo for single-DIN Roadsters

    Anything special mount/wiring needed to make it fit? Did you do the backup camera?

    Good SF Bay Area shop for suspension work

    If any had any suspension work done by a local shop, please pm me. Just want to go to a shop with actual Roadster experience rather than being the guinea pig. Also recommendation of shops to avoid would be helpful as well... thanks in advance!!

    Good SF Bay Area shop for suspension work

    Can anyone recommend a good SF Bay Area shop that's familiar with the Roadster for some suspension work? Looking on replacing with Nitron shocks and monoball bushing. I saw some old Post about dietsch werks. But their recent Yelp and Google review is not promising. Are they still the go-to...

    How to open the MC120 connector

    opening another old thread. Just curious. How did you guys remove the black canister from the plug? I can't seem to take it apart even after removing the plastic switch with the security bit.

    14-50 adaptor for Roadster UMC?

    Went ahead and ordered it. Finger crossed for the UMC to still be good. I'll work on getting some picture of it up soon. It's like every other black on black! :)

    14-50 adaptor for Roadster UMC?

    Yeah, it's currently charging with the 120v. 1 day driving around the bay takes 2-3 nights to charge... I also tried Palo Alto Tesla. No luck in the service department having the adaptor to test. They told me to order it online... Might just order it to see.

    14-50 adaptor for Roadster UMC?

    I'm a proud owner of a "new to me" 2010 Roadster Sport. The car came with the 240 Mobile Charger but it's missing the adaptor to plug it in to the wall. Just curious if there are any Roadster owners in the SF Bay Area near Peninsula that have the 14-50 adaptor for the Roadster UMC I can borrow...

    Rear View Camera (pre-2.5)

    Thanks for the help. Took out the rear tire and the fender liner. That did the trick.

    Rear View Camera (pre-2.5)

    ahh I see, I do see a lot of empty spaces under the car between the side of the aluminum bar and the rear wheel. Basically just run the wires neatly through the nooks and cranny and securing them to the side of the battery all the way to the rear? looks like it will run past the suspensions...

    Rear View Camera (pre-2.5)

    Sorry in advance for digging up an old thread. Looking at installing a backup camera and this is by far the most informational thread. I had a question on running the wires. I was able to follow the detail pictures jordanthompson posted to get it under the car. How do you run the wires after...
