NO kidding. They are certainly provide better visibility than my other vehicles at home.

I have a 3 and the headlights are amazing. The only reason I want the "new" ones is for the potential for full-time high beams in the future and also to differentiate my Y from my 3 (I'll own both for a long time and don't want identical twins).

Y yes it is.

So awesome...hoping my Performance comes with the new headlights

100% of the Performance Ys have had the updated lights for the past few months. You should be good to go.

I can't wait any longer haha. Old / new headlights. Headlights are headlights.

I totally agree. I've been waiting to order and told myself I'd get one 2nd quarter regardless of the lights and I'll be happy with either lights but really hope I get the new ones! Put my order in last week. Now I wait.

Bummer. That is likely ballgame for Q2. I am sick of waiting and placed my order. There will always be something around the corner...

Just took delivery of MY LR. I guess I did not get the new headlights? (See pic and correct me if I am wrong)

Those are the "old" lights. Go out tonight after dark and you won't care. These lights are already super good.

Thats what I through. Thanks for confirming. I guess it doesn't matter. Super excited, this is my first Tesla!

 

[ratsbew]

You should be! I've had my 3 for almost three years and still love the heck out of that car!

Congrats man. I ordered a blue one too. Can’t wait for mine. The closer I get, the less I care about the headlights.

I was looking through ebay and new headlights are popping up. One thing I noticed the connector for this area seems different.

I’m not surprised that the housing and/or wiring harness is different. In general, projectors require more depth than the reflector beams.

I believe these are just structural interconnects.

It also looks like the newer lights either dont require the same heatsinks (aluminum fins) or the seller removed them.

I also think one is a left side and the other a right.

Looking at other pictures, the actual wiring connection appears to be more centralized on the unit. (But I cant actually find good examples of both lights)
