Controller for front T if you prefer to have more control of the lighting. This is not needed if you wire directly to the headlight circuit.

Note: I have no affiliation with Oznium – they make the lighted “T”s, the controllers and the trunk lights. I do like their products and their engineering and support staff is based here in HK – buy local!
Three quick notes:
- I installed these items myself. The trunk light is very simple, the lighted “T”s take a little more effort. I would be happy to help others install them in HK. Perhaps a group install. Alternatively a shop that does high quality sound system installations should be able to do these installations.
- Installing these items requires a few additional bits and pieces like connectors, auto quality trim tape, wire, etc. I have enough extra of these items to install a few more “T”s. See lighted “T” instructions for additional details.
- For RHD cars some of the steps and connections are different versus instructions in #2. I will be posting these differences under the appropriate thread in the forum. Or contact me direct.
Hi All,
I am new to the forum. I expect to get my Tesla delivery in mid December.
(a) fob holders - I read somewhere that Tesla provides them with the keys.
(b) screen protector - I read that there are two layers of screen protector; the top one should be removed and the bottom retained and not necessary to buy seperately.
(c) floor mats - I understand those from the US websites don't fit in the HK right hand drives.
(d) trunk mat which protects the bumper when moving luggage.
Also is Orix (finance) and Liberty (insurance) the best combo if I have 60% NCD?
Anything else I should arrange?
All,
On item D for the trunk mat - rear bumper protector question from SK1 I am getting quotes next week. I will also be covering the rear seats so they are protected when they are folded down to move big items. Will post quote afterwards. The big difference for the fabricator is if he makes a one-off unit for me or a template that he can reuse. Any other interest?
l3xh, just wait until the car has autopilot: You will need to make a camera that detects the police, and in that case drives the car off somewhere else.
I suggest you consider having a solar panel on the parcel shelf, connected to the battery for the camera and phone connection. That way, when your car is off, daylight can keep it charged up (unless you are in a garage of course)
I've always loved the idea of solar panels, however, this is so far the cheapest yet most effective DIY combo I have for now.
I am just talking about a smaller panel, maybe 1 square foot, to top off the battery. You might be parking somewhere for an extended time, and your battery would otherwise run out of power. As long as you are outside, that solar panel would keep you going.
But most car parks are indoor, no sunlight.
I want a side camera for my car. It's just too hard to judge the curb and low obstacles.
Since this is relevant not just for Hong Kong, I posted it here:
Passenger side camera - see curb and hidden obstacles
Comments, ideas welcome. Let me know if others are interested in my findings, or want the same. The more people that support it, the higher priority I will give the project.
