I nominate Madison. Daryl Hannah's character from the movie Splash.

Is it so hard to post a URL for the referenced video in the youtube post or in this thread?

Newest video. How much I paid. Next steps etc.

"There are two things Elon Musk doesn't want to see. His ex-wife and someone fixing their own Tesla." Boom.

I apparently missed the video where you went from CarGuru to RichRebuilds.

I also haven't found the "other video that explains why I chose this car" that you mention in the near the start of the video "worlds most disgusting Tesla".

Yeah, he had to as he was getting some heat from www.cargurus.com for infringement on their name!

I haven't heard any music on your videos that I'd want taken out.

SO...... did the battery survive?

Nice watch.

Question - the modules that weren't at the ideal 24 volts, are they likely bad? Asking because I've seen even at really low state of charge that the BMS in the car keeps things well balanced at around 24v.

I have to say, I am surprised that this thread has not exploded. It is certainly encouraging to see that the modules has some type of voltage, but I have always wondered how people take apart Tesla packs without making sure the battery cover survives. I also saw a 2013 Flooded Model S for 10,000 that needs a pack for sale in the Fremont area, Im not sure if rich would be interested?

Against all odds, this was a decent buy.

HOW ABOUT THAT INTERIOR?

Love your videos, watched this one a few days ago!!

Also hate to burst your bubble but I have pulled those rear seat side bolster cushions out multiple times to go drag racing as part of my cars weight loss program and have not deformed them yet. I guess it’s possible they changed the plastic clip design with the refreshed cars, it looks like the clip your struggling with is white and mine is black...

The refresh cars are much easier to remove. I was attempting to remove it on a late 2014 and slightly deformed it. On a 2017 it came off really easy.

I suppose its been a while hasn't it?
