    Jeda V4 Wireless Charger

    Well I got it to work after talking to Jeda support. Installing the spacer helps line up the phone correctly somehow. Still ridiculous that you have to do that, but at least it charges (probably slowly...havent try to see the charging rate yet)

    Your Pro Max and Apple leather case charges?! Mine doesn’t on the one just delivered to me and my friends. I’m hoping it’s a bad batch….but not holding my breath…..

    Looking for license plate frame recomendation for rear

    This is what I'm using. I liked the model 3 frame that came with the car, but when I did a chrome delete it kinda stuck out like a sore thumb. Frame can be found here: TESLA Black Model 3 License Plate Frame , Free Ship from CA. Black Aluminum Laser Etched With Screws & Black Caps...

    ESPN Los Angeles on Tune-In not working

    I wonder if this will ever get fixed. It's annoying to use the phone just for this.

    Supercharger - Las Vegas, NV (High Roller at LINQ)

    It's been awhile since I usually stay at MGM resorts, but I know back in that day that area is a well know flash flood area especially in the summer. Hopefully all that construction has mitigated this? That's my only concern with this location.

    Chrome delete in So Cal

    Yup these guys are great. They did chrome delete on me and my buddy’s Model 3 as well. They do it all (PPF, tint, ceramic, powder coating) so just another option for those looking!

    Model 3 Am Radio

    You know KNX (and most of the am stations here in so cal) broadcast on the FM HD protocol. I believe for KNX it's 101.1 HD2

    How do I get a hold of someone in the referral department?

    I was in the same boat. Earned a referral in October...filled out the form, and basically no communication until two weeks ago when a very heavy wall connector arrived at the house. Bottom line, don't expect any communication :)

    Model 3 Software Update 2018.48.x

    Homelink for deadbolt in garage

    Not directly that will work with homelink, but the August smart lock system has an auto unlock feature based on bluetooth/location of your phone. So everytime I get home, the Tesla opens the garage and the bluetooth triggers the deadbolt. This is closest solution I think your looking for. Its...

    Official Floor Mats available

    For those looking: Model 3 All Weather Interior Mats Full disclosure, found this via reddit: Tesla brand TM3 floor mats - anyone have these yet? : teslamotors

    How do you carry house keys?

    I keep a set of keys in my glovebox in case of emergency. Otherwise, I use homelink for the garage and an august smart lock. If possible, I highly suggest looking into August. You can use with your current locks. It is sooooo nice not to carry keys around anywhere!

    Costa Mesa Service Center Experience

    Yes it's pretty crazy here in OC. Among work colleagues/friends, there's probably 8-10 of us that got/will get their 3. Fortunately we shouldn't have a need to go service centers often. But when we do, I hope the experience improves (my initial visit to get the windshield ordered wasn't too bad...

    Costa Mesa Service Center Experience

    Yeah the lack of communication by the SC staff is the most concerning. Dropped off the Wednesday before labor day for a windshield replacement (ordered months ago) and for a bolt missing from the fender. Told the advisor, i need the car by the end of the day Friday since I was planning on going...

    Recommended PPF installer in So Cal? (West side)

    Does anyone have a picture of the luggage strip ppf? I had mine done, but I have a hard time seeing if it's actually there (if there's seams etc). Either they're really good in the application or it's not on there. Just want to double check before my follow up appointment this weekend! TIA

    Who's tinted their windows?

    Yes this is 30. 20 is really dark. My concern doing 20 is driving at night. At 30, driving at night is dark when looking at the autodimming mirrors. I can imagine 20 is worse. I also believe the glass roof makes a difference when you compare it to a solid roof. I’ll follow up this week about...

    Do I need a new FasTrak responder?

    Every toll system in CA uses the fastrak, so you can use it on any toll system. Its up to you which agency you use the most: FasTrak Throughout California | The Toll Roads

    Do I need a new FasTrak responder?

    The Toll Roads (73) has the new smaller ones...so its not a nor cal item.

    LA times article

    Well... i’m still waiting for a windshield replacement (cosmetic deformity) and the SC is still waiting to receive one up to “Tesla standards”. A PITA yes, but I’m not sweating it...yet. :)

    Tune In dropping local stations?

    A lot of the brodcasters use the hd2 stations to broadcast their am stations. Another example 98.7 hd2 is the home for am 570. You can find hd channels for your region here Local HD Radio Stations

    Mounting Fastrak transponder

    I mounted mine in the Tesla recommended part of the windshield and have not had any issues whatsoever. I did however request a new transponder when I got the Model 3 so maybe that helps? The new ones the TollRoads send are smaller. If interested, let me know and I'll post a pic.

    Recommended PPF installer in So Cal? (West side)

    If you're still debating about doing this, I'd suggest to debate quickly and then sign up. I'm scheduled my appointment....for August! :-O Guess I'll have to be *very* careful until the time comes.

    VIN Assignment

    It takes awhile for your VIN to appear on your account page. I think I just saw mine there for the first time today. Granted I have been checking that page less often since I had my delivery appointment made Maybe I'll see you at the delivery center since mine is on the 2nd as well!

    I'm T-minus 2 day for delivery and my car is on the lot yet no sales contract/final #s

    I heard from my ISA today and said if I dont hear from the contracts team soon to let him kmow. So maybe send him/her a message?

    I'm T-minus 2 day for delivery and my car is on the lot yet no sales contract/final #s

    I have a feeling the 3 day weekend has thrown the schedule off. My guess is to expect a lot of emailing tomorrow. I’m in the same boat as you albeit I have until Saturday to take delivery

    Well i know there are timeslots available at Costa Mesa before June which is I believe you said your loan rate expires.

    4/18 Invites

    LOL this is true. Technically I could've taken delivery on 5/31, but the wife wasn't available. Friday was an option too, but traffic on the 405 going home from the delivery center on a Friday afternoon can be brutal.

    There used to be yellow check marks for anything pending

    4/18 Invites

    Same..maybe i should not come here as often so I don’t get jealous seeing all these people get contacted. Although it looks like tesla changed the manage your order page. instead of a yellow checkmark, they have catagories. Heres to hoping today’s the day. Don’t they want my money?

    May 20th push back emails

    So if we got the vin via the store trick, should we report it in the various spreadsheet trackers or should we wait until we're actually contacted by an ISA
  44. ericbs

    4/18 Invites

    You’re probably ok. It'll be interesting to see what happens since it looks like we both have vins and are in the so cal area...only you didn't get the email, but i did.

    4/18 Invites

    Hmmm now im confused. I psudo have a vin from the hpwc trick, but also got that email. Maybe I’ll split the difference and guess delivery in early June?
