Do people have suggestions for the best accessories for a new Model Y owner? I'd like to get all-weather floor mats for sure and considering a dog cover for the back seat, so I'd appreciate advice on those. Our garage is a bit tight, so I'm also thinking about getting some protectors for the door edges so they don't hit the other car when opened; also thinking of doing the same for my Leaf to protect the MY. Things I should be considering that might not be on my radar?

Thanks!
 
There are dozens of thread on TMC on accessories for the Tesla Model Y.

Ceramic tint for the glass, recommended installers by location
Paint Protection Film (PPF); may require professional installation
Sunshade for the glass roof, rear hatch glass
Mudflaps (that one thread is over 500 posts)
Tow hitch cover (if equipped with the optional tow hitch)
Bicycle rack (requires optional tow hitch)
Roof rack
Screen protector (matte or glossy protector)
Liners for the frunk, rear hatch storage and sub trunk
USB Readers, Endurance type MicroSD Cards to replace the Tesla USB drive
18" and 19" non-Tesla Wheels and tires
Cooler for the frunk
Mini-fridge for the rear cargo area
Mattress or air mattress for use when camping in the Model Y
 
Here is a list I made shortly after I got my car:
Here are a few more:

Tasmanian covers for back of rear seats
Strip light for frunk
EVglass and battery insulation from EVinsulate
Door handle upgrade
Portable tire inflator
tire gauge
Black wheel covers for 19" Gemini wheels
Conversion kit to add data to center console usb ports
usb hub for center console
upgraded interior lights
upgraded trunk light

PPF in the front, hood and front fenders. Maybe something clear over the headlights as well.
Matching Tint for the other two side windows.
Screen protector.
Floor liners, F&R, good ones.
Tire inflator. *
SSD for the glovebox.
Easily quick-release removable front license plate holder.
S3XY Buttons (Freemont cars only, currently).
Mesh cover for the rear passenger heat/cooling vents so crap doesn't roll into them and trapping the thing(s) forever and driving you nuts.
Cup holder for phone.

* electric accessories now run on 15.5v Anything you buy should be rated for that, or it will slowly or quickly stop working. Tire inflators and converters for 120 volt output are some of those. Power converters are very sensitive to this new voltage. Plenty of tire inflators are available that are battery powered.

One of the best accessories we got was the roof shade (the 2 piece version). Don't even notice it's there and you still get that open feeling (the newer ones even have opaque covers for more vampire protection).

We have the sliding organizer in the center console and instead of the flat rear cargo pockets for each side we bought the cheaper divider versions which work out pretty good.

Also have the center storage lid cover and just recently bought the slide-in center console USB port which matches well and looks great. Also got that tissue holder that you can put under the center display.

Next up is some cheapie HUD but we'll see how that works out.

The Tesla Model Y center console is a notorious fingerprint magnet. Its smooth surface is hard to keep spotless and can leave fingerprints and smudges on even the cleanest fingers.

Top 10 Best Tesla Model Y Accessories in 2022



Carbon Fiber Center Console Wrap not only hides fingerprints but also protects the center console from permanent scratches, fading, and everyday wear and tear. The center console wrap combined with the touchscreen protector will help keep your Model Y's interior in new shape for years.

This wrap matches the rest of the interior perfectly. Installing this wrap may lead you to believe that the carbon fiber center console should have been a factory option on the Model Y.

Top 10 Best Tesla Model Y Accessories in 2022



Like any glass-based display, it is susceptible to scratches and general wear and tear. We don't think the display in our cars will be as susceptible to this as a smartphone screen, but rings and other metal objects that come in contact with the display will leave permanent marks.

A screen protector will help avoid this as it protects the actual glass with a thin, replaceable clear film that removes scratches while leaving the actual screen spotless.

As with any plastic-based surface, it will turn yellow after years of use and sun exposure. You may need to replace it every few years, and the good news is that your glass screen is intact and scratch-free. There is nothing more satisfying than removing the screen protector to reveal a flawless screen underneath.

Because of its low cost, we think it's an excellent investment and a must-have Tesla Model Y accessory, as it helps keep your center console display glass spotless and scratch-free.

The tempered glass has a 9H hardness surface and can be installed in minutes. The package itself includes a wipe and glass cleaner kit to clean the screen before installation. Place the protective film on the screen, remove any air bubbles with a squeegee or credit card, and you're ready to go.

7. Tesla Model Y Jack Pad​


Quick Overview

  • 4 pcs Tesla Lifting Mats
  • Non-slip rubber ring
  • Protects all four jacking points
  • Easy to remove after jacking up a car
In the past, jacking up a car was easy - just place a jack under the vehicle and use it to jack up the car so you can change wheels or perform maintenance.

However, Tesla's battery pack is close to the jacking point. It's important to have a special pad when lifting a Tesla because, without a jack pad adapter, the lift will apply excessive and uneven pressure near the battery pack, which can lead to long-term damage and possibly even a fire. Tesla's jack pad adapter allows you to safely jack up your vehicle. It is considered a must-have accessory for Tesla owners.

Try these jack pads are more durable, they are denser than regular pads and therefore have higher resilience and longer life. The non-slip rubber ring on this jack pad model provides a better grip and reduces the chance of shattering and damaging the Tesla chassis. It is designed for the Tesla Model 3, S, and X and comes with four lift pads in the package.

You get four jack pads and a premium zippered mesh storage bag for easy transport from home to the car. The pads themselves are light enough to keep in the trunk of your Tesla car for emergencies.


8. Model Y Center Console Cup holder​


Quick View

  • Custom Design
  • Versatile
  • Made of soft materials
The Tesla comes with a much wider water cup slot than other brands of cars, which cannot hold a typical water cup, cell phone, or other items securely, and therefore will generate noise while driving. Do you feel angry about the noise generated by shaking bottles, cell phones, etc. while driving? Do you often worry about road bumps, causing the liquid in the water cups to spill and dirty the car interior?

The center console cup holder insert helps you hold drinks and other debris in place so that liquids don't spill and stain your car. The bottles can also be secured to prevent sliding and dropping. In addition, it can reduce the noise of items hitting the body while driving, creating a comfortable driving environment for you.

What all weather floor mats does anyone recommend? I would also like the mat for the trunk
I'm very pleased with the Tesmanian floor mats. They have mats for the trunk and the frunk as well. They even have mats that cover the back of the rear seats so when they're folded down the entire floor of the storage area in the back is protected.

I have a large mostly white dog that sheds a lot (Great Pyrenees, Border Collie mix) so whenever I can cover up the black carpeting it's a plus.

Also, Meguiar's M5716SP Marine/RV Vinyl & Rubber Cleaner works well at restoring them to black. I imagine it would work well with any black floor mats. I originally got it to protect the foam and rubber around the doors.

Any good recommendations for a mattress that will fit in the back for overnight camping?
The Exped Megamat duo is great. It's a rectangular mat. The 41" wide ones just fit in the back. I think either length will fit. They also make one that is designed for Teslas, the Exped Megamat Duo 10 TXY:


Unfortunately, these are all pretty expensive. They are not super small when compressed. Can fit in the frunk though. Very comfortable. Not super easy to roll up. But IMO this is the way to go if you're bringing a significant other. For one person, especially for just one night, I'd go with something smaller so you have some space alongside the mattress for putting/storing things. Otherwise the back is almost all mattress especially with the TXY version.

For anything inflatable I highly recommend getting a usb rechargeable air mattress pump. I got the Flextailgear Max. There are many others. It inflates and deflates. I wouldn't take it backpacking but for car camping it's perfect.
