Same problem here. Service appt. in 10 days. Need 1 1/2 hours. Wonder if they will swap out both.

I wished I had had your pliers. Would at least have given me another option. So yes, they may work. Just be prepared for them to keep slipping off. Wear gloves because you are sure (?) to pinch your fingers.

Just finished getting the screws out (sort of) on my new revised 90D. Good grief, what a pain. 11/32 didn't work (too big). 8mm was too small (just) and 9mm too big. Naturally. J. Anders tried your tin foil idea but couldn't make it work (foil not strong enough). Spent an hour with the 8mm...

Please note, I haven't changed my signature profile yet. Still reports old Model S.

Okay sports fans, I just picked up my brand new, refreshed, 90D in Rockville. The DRLs are working fine in Auto mode. Range mode is off. I knowingly announced to my DS that there was a glitch in the DRLs and that they would only work in Park mode. Nope, they work just as my previous Model S...

Cancelling today and waiting for a wee bit. The show room in Bethesda was quite certain a price hike is coming in April, no hesitation whatsoever in confirming that. Agree with others above, something is likely to pop "soon". Yeah, I know...

I can't even get into MyTesla. Kicks me out.

Did anyone notice that the Model X seemed to be without outside mirrors? Looked like a camera stem instead. Very cool if it passes the inspectors.

$100k eh? On behalf of the rest of us I wish you great good fortune at selling it for this much.

Thank you Mike and all your staff for your wonderful hospitality. And now BMW probably knows they never want to show off the i3 again with a megawatt of Teslas standing by.

I'll be there. Artsci looking forward to finally meeting you. Phil

Artsci - sign me up for a tie if you still have one. Thanks, Phil

It's on my calendar. Red and I will be there. Thanks for organizing.

I have used Criswell in Annapolis and they did a good job. The Rockville SC set it up.

EL - same as you however I also got a new compressor out of the deal. This was the 2nd summer in a row that the old one failed. Now I don't scare people as I roll down the highway. Satisfaction!

Tim - welcome to the club. You'll likely never go back to the old way they used to make cars.

Lots of AC problems here. 2013: brought car in because AC was waking the neighbors. Told it was a normal sound. Six weeks later AC stopped cooling altogether and SC finally fixed it. 2014: brought car in because AC was waking the neighbors (again) and was told everything is normal and fine...

Wow, great image. Tell your 15yo that this professional photographer is impressed.

@artsci - thanks very much for this. I may indeed take you (him) up on this.

The Rockville SC has told me point blank that they aren't installing fog lights anymore in cars that didn't get them. I have the tech package and picked up the car in April 2013. I think I've asked them twice. Anyone else getting this answer?

Just ordered. Thanks crmohler. The dog will be happy.

Rick - please list me to the add. (See, I've solved the R-L problem.) Phil

I'm surprised to see a supercharger go in so close to a major metropolitan area. I thought they were being purposely spaced out on the highways between major cities. This is great news nevertheless, I'm just wondering if they have changed their location policy. TMC is so awesome.

Artsci you are at your best when waiting for your car. I remember the incredible amount of research and planning you put in while waiting for the original delivery - and we all benefit. All the research on the best product to protect the paint, for example. I still use and love Glare. So...

Outstanding idea Aaron and others. February is not the best month to visit DC but then again part of the point is that Model Ss are hardy and can conquer all. So can their owners! I live in the DC area and am in. Looking forward to it. Will reply officially to the proper address. Happy...

Sorry for you artsci, and for your red beauty. Here is hoping they do a fantastic job, and quickly.

I would definitely let Nathen in Rockville know of this. They only recently included this new body shop in their approved list. If good customer service were not amount their criteria they should know about it. If it were part of their criteria, they should know about it. Regarding the shop...

Artsci - I had the occasion to use the Tesla approved shop in Annapolis this summer. They were terrific, even sent photos of the repair along the way. Keep the faith!

Congrats Lloyd. Smart thinking!

Try Optimum No Rinse which works on a similar premise. I've been using it faithfully and it seems to work very well. *Disclaimer: I don't own a "swirl finder". ??

I have used ONR several times on top of my Glare treatment. No issues other than a clean and shiny car!

Artsci I hope you're planning on doing this inside tomorrow because we're looking at rain, rain, rain here. It's my fault; I washed the car this evening.

Josh - I will post a photo when I can next do it, that is if I can find the seam. :wink: The Glare Pro finish was fantastic. In fact the professional detailer said he had never used a product so good. He was raving about it. All credit goes to artsci.

Stay the course arondaniel. You won't be disappointed. I had the "factory" install and my detailer didn't even know it was there until he started to apply two coats of Glare Pro. Damn near invisible.

Too much analysis. Go with the feeling!

That's terrific! It's a real thrill when you learn your car is sufficiently real to talk to you, isn't it.

Yes, I selected the factory option for the film. I'm not sure I can advise whether to put film on before or after Glare. Logic might suggest before however. The Glare went on top of everything.

I just had a professional detailer put two coats of Glare on the car. I asked him afterwards what he thought of the product. He said he was amazed. Said it's the smoothest and shiniest product he's ever used. Thank you artsci!

Delivered last Friday.

Words escape me. Maybe a picture or two will suffice. Picked her up on Friday.

Congratulations celter. You'll have a fun summer contemplating what will happen in the fall and reading, reading, reading these forums. Sep./Oct. isn't that far away actually, tomorrow my 2+ year wait will be over and these forums definitely helped the time pass. (We won't talk about the lost...

Give it up ylyubarsky. We all know you're pissed, upset, think you have been lied to, and are disbelieving this is the same red. We get it. You have a number of choices: cancel your order and reserve a different one, take it and wrap it with another color, or live with it. Enough already...

Okay, scrambling is good. Helps keep your mind off of the clock. I however have already failed that test. Mine is due to be picked up in Rockville on Friday with a full truck load of REDs coming it's way. The question remains as to who will be there first, the truck driver or me.

Doug - thank you for this. It already has taken some road trip anxiety out of me and I don't even get the car until this Friday. Very well done.

Pics or it's not there! :-)

Ah, yes. Sorry I missed that.

How difficult was it to do and how long did it take? Did you buff it by hand?

Hawk - how about your headliner?

Ahhhh, you've got one beautiful car xhawk. Go enjoy it and report back!

Thanks to you both. I ordered from Spruce because in addition to the lower price the shipping was half of Glare's. Now all I need is something to shine. (8 days, but who's counting)
