    Dome Light- Where to find Higher lumens LED aftermarket kit?

    Strangely even the most popular vendors like Abstract Ocean don't have the replacement kit for this. Perhaps the touch sensitive lights are difficult to replace ????

    Most accurate way to plan a trip

    ABRP does not include the seasonal road closures and destination/ public place chargers. I had to use Tesla destination chargers list, hotel search engine (Only booking.com has an option for EV chargers search), google real time map and ABRP to plan my long road trips.

    Vancouver Charging Options

    I notice that booking.com has an option to pick EV charging for searching hotels. Linking Tesla destination charger addresses to hotels is a bit of a hassle. Would it not be better if all hotel search engines have that option of Destination charging facility?

    Most accurate way to plan a trip

    I was about to buy a subscription version of EVTO, then your post came out and I decided to use that just for planning purpose. As you said, the changes in traffic and the ambient conditions (wind, temp) are not easily predictable. Hope I could get used to it before the winter steps in. Thx

    Most accurate way to plan a trip

    My goal is to get the optimized route on my MX 17" monitor which gives me the quickest option based on free supercharging and other boundaries like load, headwind, inside/outside temp, target charge %.

    New Model X and Windshield Protection?

    Thank you Targe. Good to hear the life of the film. I've got this installed last week; I'm an user and not ExoShield installer.

    New Model X and Windshield Protection?

    It doesn't interfere with my autopilot. Exxoshield and Cler Plex are manufactured by the same company. Two points worth noting: 1. You may need to replace it every 2 to 3 years as it may turn yellow 2. In case of stone hits, you may not be able to repair the rockchip crack or star crack. Need to...

    New Model X and Windshield Protection?

    I got my MX windshield protected by a thick film (same film with different trade names) and amazingly got a lifelong warranty against any cracks for an one time small fee (<500$).

    Anyone buy a new inventory MX?

    I've custom ordered one Raven MX with FSD and center console. Few questions on buying an Inventory model X: Do we have to negotiate the price? Can I get a second row center console aftermarket and get it installed? When will the Tesla's own insurance program kick in? Thx

    Model X Adaptive Suspension Test Drive

    I would consider the major change in the new X/S is in the front axle motor which is PMSM (Permanent magnet synchronous motor) giving much higher efficiency, lower weight and better stop and go torque + range. But I don't know how do you feel that change while driving?

    cheap acoustic foam sunroof (insulation) project

    Insulating the panoramic roof in winter

    I feel temperature measurement is more sensitive to leakage of outside air than the sound meter. I feel glass transmits heat and sound more than the panelled body. Placing the acoustic pyramid studio foam on the roof and on the side glasses should reduce the heat loss and the noise transmission...

    What accessories included with New showroom Tesla?

    Do we get paint touch up kit? There should be at least a 'road trip kit' including light weight jack, wrench set, tire repair kit, and a mini compressor for such a 'tire consuming' vehicle!

    Where can I buy road hazard insurance for tire and wheel protection?

    I was told (Elon also stated this) that Tesla would be introducing a comprehensive insurance coverage within a month similar to the one offered by Volvo care. In my opinion, those who've ordered and waiting for the delivery should wait for this insurance cum warranty opportunity.

    Ordered before change - not yet in production

    I confirmed through tesla.whaleface.com that my model ordered on March 20th (revised on Mar 22nd) does not include new motors, lubrication, cooling, bearings, tire/ wheel and gear design. So, I've cancelled it and ordered a new one on Apr 25th. But this does not have that 'View Spec' document yet.

    Just bought an X. My first Tesla. It'll be the family beater and we'll ignore it. Suggestions?

    No doubt, the matte finish looks sexy! I've a concern. say, if there's a stone hit or a scratch on the bumper, will it not tear away the ceramic coat and the film and then you've to redo the entire body again? Another bonus question. Can I apply the 3M matte finish film on the wheels as well?

    Do you use a screen protector?
