Wow, now I can see why you can't get roof rack mounts on the full glass top - no where to put them. They really mean "full glass".

I just got mine and I need to tint my windows to 15% or less still. But, the glass roof looks pretty dark.
In that third picture, not sure it's windshield gasket or roof gasket, but doesn't fit real well. Tesla's QC seems to be on top of their game as usual...here are some pix of the car i was in on saturday...View attachment 204669 View attachment 204670 View attachment 204671 View attachment 204672 View attachment 204673 View attachment 204674 View attachment 204675 View attachment 204676
Why is cross beam support needed?
Construct the car as if it were a convertible. Then slap some glass on top. Convertibles obviously don't need support. Why would non-convertibles then need all of these a,b and c columns and beams?
How much structural rigidity does one need? I don't plan on rolling over lolSo Tesla can continue to ace it's crash safety tests.
Convertibles sacrifice the roof for structural rigidity but modern ones have rollover bars behind rear headrests so necks and skulls stay relatively intact in case the car flips.
Front occupants need to rely on the metal frame holding the front windshield, which would already conflict with implementing a windshield like the model X.
The glass roof option on the Model 3 seems like it would follow a design similar to the Fiat 500 soft top (only with glass in place of the fabric)

It is already pretty tinted... so much so, that I keep forgetting it's there. Add in a black interior, and it is pretty dark inside.I just ordered a model S 90D in black. I would really like dark tinted windows. However, I also ordered the glass roof. Should I tent the roof? Would that look funny if it was not tinted?

That's the one thing I'm trying to avoid. I hate dark interiors. They seem so small and confining.It is already pretty tinted... so much so, that I keep forgetting it's there. Add in a black interior, and it is pretty dark inside.

There ya go. That's exactly what I'm going to do.just order the light leather option and light headliner to get rid of the claustrophobic feeling.
