I decided to print some labels to help people understand the door handles. It’s white on black tape so I don’t think it’s that bad but the wife says never but label maker stuff in a car of any price range. What do you think?

Might I recommend door stickers from Tesla Bros. They’re $6, come in different colors, and are easy to apply with transfer tape. Simple, clean design.

Don't label them. If nothing else, it will probably start looking really bad as it gets dirty and starts peeling off.
Do you have that many new riders? For me "button on top" seems to work really well.
If you want to have fun, then go through the pre-flight briefing as pilots do.

- When I say head against the headrest, I mean it.
- To exist hot the top button
- In the event that an accident has happened and the top button does not work, use the emergency release handle.
It's random. Someone will ride with me to a meeting at work and they are back in 4 weeks later and forget and pull the release again. Same with relatives. I may split the difference and just use the door icon and take the emergency release off.
They make a white on clear tape that may look a tad better than white on black. I only installed this on the front passenger door as a test.
I wish I could just silkscreen something instead of using tape but there is no undo button with that. I also agree tape will not last and will probably require Goo-Gone when it fails.
Ever since my delivery (end of March 2018), the window drops down when using the manual lever. It was one of the first things I tried with my door to try to understand what trim might be damaged. It's never been clear to me how the trim could be damaged unless the window didn't come down at all. But it does..... And assuming some firmware added this feature, why not disable the warning on the touchscreen?
Also, the window comes down instantly when the lever releases the latch. It's not as if you were to suddenly open the door, the window wouldn't clear the trim yet.

I wrapped my door handles from RPMTesla, it completely covers the emergency levers and no one ever pulls them as they don't even know they exist. A much more elegant solution IMO.
Here is a pic of the drivers side door, sorry for the dust/hairs probably need to clean my interior here soon!

I've honestly NEVER had anyone find the manual release, let alone use it.
I guess I have a different group of friends.

I've had one person pull the emergency release. Everyone else that's been in my car has been confused and had no idea how to get in or out.
I've had around 6 different people pull it. And half of them forgot about it. Friends, family and coworkers. Family and coworkers win the not knowing how to exit prize.

Before I wrapped the handles I had probably a 50/50 mix of people pulling the emergency lever versus just sitting there with their hands in the air confused as to what to do next.

Correction!!! Correction!!!
I just received these door labels and they are not just labels. They are 3D. They are raised decals with an amazing feel to them.
They aren't stickers.
Really cool.
