2023 upgrade to a bigger rear screen?

[ken830]

I did not buy this from Tesla directly. however I do see many rear screens for sale on eBay.

Really? Any examples? What is the part number? Tesla Service Parts Catalog only lists:

1

R94 REAR DISPLAY

1673461-00-E

But it's unclear if this is the new larger display, the smaller older display, or if both share the same part number?? I also didn't find any on eBay by searching this part number.

Oh I saw a bunch of screens on eBay , not sure if they are older or newer. I’ll post some pictures of mine. It is definitely the newer screen because when I look up close I can see the thinner bezels in comparison to my old screen.
Here’s the ones that pop up when I search eBay. (Note I did not purchase from ebay.)

Waiting for my MX to arrive next month and curious to know if an update has been done to allow the rascals in the 2nd row to watch movies and or play games via Bluetooth/wired headsets so the front passengers can still listen to music?

Nope

The new screen is not much larger than the old one. Definitely not enough to make a difference and not worth $700.

 

[GoVols!]

Nope

That’s disappointing. Wonder if they will update with an OTA but won’t hold my breath unless enough people complain about it I suppose

It would be nice!

The front and back screen is pretty useless.

The back can watch Netflix and YouTube but it takes over the entire audio system.

Noise cancelling never seem to work. Mine is always calibrating.

It is possible of course. They have change out the entire user interface multiple times and added features such as autopilot including FSD with *just* a software update.

It is a little tricky though, with multiple sets of headphones and multiple sources of audio floating around. I suspect it is real can of worms that Tesla has been reluctant to open, given the potential for failure and configuration errors. Have you ever tried using shared audio with multiple sets BT headphones on the same iPad? It works, but it is quite painful to set up and requires full cooperation among the parties. Not exactly compatible with typical back seat dynamics on a family road trip, if you get my drift.

I’m replacing my old thick bezel screen with the new thinner bezel screen on Wednesday. I’ll post an update then.

Worked flawlessly everyone, plug and play. Video coming soon. Does anyone with the older rear screen have a picture of the “rear screen control” app on the from the front screen?

Is it noticeable the difference in size?

Looking forward to your videos. I’ve checking this thread weekly since December, and waiting for someone brave enough to do the modification

Thank you for the picture! So the rear control screen looks the same! No difference.

So YouTube is still processing the video in HD and 4K. However if you didn’t want to wait for the better quality video you can go ahead and check it out here! If you enjoyed it or had any questions let me know and please subscribe!

After I saw your video, I ordered the part from the SC. Looks like the old thick bezel part number is 1566028-00-C the newer thin bezel has 1673461-00-E. They cost $600 from tesla directly. It is over the counter part so anyone can get it.

That’s fantastic news!

That’s fantastic news!

After the review from the SC this morning, said it’s not available to buy that part and cancel it. But, the friend of mine can buy that part directly from the Tesla so I pay him and he order it for me. All is good now. Will retrofit the thick bezel screen to the newest one!
