When I checked SSD operating temps in their respective datasheet PDFs, non of them really supported anything above 110F. I live in California.
Thank you
Shipped and dropped off. You should be getting it in a few days 
Post some pics when installed This is terrific. Thanks for the videos. Is there a video or photo showing Xpel 50 vs nothing? I might have missed that and would love to see the impact of tinting at 50% for the overall aesthetics. (The video does a great job of showing that 50% doesn’t impact the brake lights/safety, but I’m curious how it looks in the lit garage or daylight relative to no tint)
Sorry, it was 1am at the time I was shooting haha. Will take off the 35% tonight to compare 50% to nothing. Will post photos either later today or tomorrow morning.
Here is the dog seat cover--3 parts: a protector for each door and the hammock part that hooks on the front and rear headrests, plus a storage bag. There are slits in the main piece so you can get at the seat belts if you use harnesses.
good looking dog and a nicely fitting cover. thanks
How long would you estimate it takes to put on and take off? Thanks

Under five min:
- Hang the door protectors--they have little plastic tabs that tuck into the window opening
- Hook the front loops over the front seat headrests
- There are plastic toggle that tuck into the gap between the rear seat back and seat bottom to hold the cover in place
- Hook the rear loops over the rear headrests
- Add dog
+1. I was burned by RPM Tesla as well. Poor, poor quality products. I bought white center console covers to try to cover the piano black finish for my MY. Wow! When I saw the actual white covers I was shocked at what a joke it was. And into the trash bin it went. Yup, vinyl logo was a joke too. I thought to myself, maybe if I’m a teenager, I just might be ok with it. But come on, after spending nearly $70k on the MY, I was about to cheapen the car with tacky, low quality products. RPM Tesla was a rip off.Sorry, I can’t believe those guys are still in business. The in-house made stuff Mark was peddling 2-3 years ago was pure puke. The guys at my Service Center literally laughed at the quality. Hopefully things have changed for the better and they are more of a distributor or have better design and partners now.
An example or two from the past
- The wireless charger he was selling for the S was a poorly hand-cut sandwich of two pieces of foam. Inside was the cheapest charger you could get. Probably 5 bucks of material he was selling for something like 75.
- The ‘Tesla’ flask was a generic item with a vinyl logo stuck on. Me and my Cricut did better at home.
- Same with the ‘custom’ cargo container for the trunk.
- Don’t even get me started on the vinyl appliqués. Well, ok. They were great if you kept everyone 15 feet from your car. At that distance they looked spectacular.
I rarely speak this bad about anything. Apologies.
Like I said, hopefully they sell or make better stuff today. Our cars are too nice to have pre-schooler projects put in or stuck on them unless they are indeed from our own toddlers.
I have found the wood trim nicks rather easily. This is a good fix/color match:
Varathane 215359 Wood Stain Touch-Up Marker For Light Walnut, American Walnut, Gunstock
You can get it on Amazon.

@omarsultan Yes, I purchased that very can to complete the custom wood trim in my MYP - to match the Plaid.

@omarsultan Thanks! I purchased the slightly more expensive one coat stain. Sanded first, stained. Waited a few days. Teak oil for final seal. Then added the yoke to make it compatible with the plaid. Like the stalks with the yoke better than the plaid abomination.
I have the Tesla Official All Weather Mats in my PLAID.
Just posted this 46 second video, pretty funny.

So, the XPEL Stealth came...indeed, it's Matte. Phew
Here are some pics of the door sill in XPEL Stealth (Matte).
I also just listed it as an option for the MS door sills on my store (TWRAPS).

Looks good! I would be curious to see a picture of them in a few months; to see how the PPF holds up under foot!So, the XPEL Stealth came...indeed, it's Matte. Phew

For $45 bucks, I would be willing to replace this annually. Might have a future purchaser @Iyordanov
