How to improve yoke buttons for $8

[TSLA Pilot]

You do know the trick right, you can activate the horn just by covering the entire right side with your palm. You don't need to hunt for the horn button. Just take your palm and slam cover all the buttons on the right.

For me that mostly just turns on the wipers instead of providing an actual "Horn" blast . . . the yoke remains a joke, sadly.

Looks like they are removing the stalks from the 3/Y as well.

Model 3 and Y to lose steering wheel stalks; gain touch-sensitive wheel a la Model S

Tesla is expected to move the Model 3 and Model Y to a steering wheel with touch-sensitive buttons

Might as well make a bad idea pervasive. Then, nothing to compare it to.

Best input is no input. RIGHT...............

Once they self-drive at the end of the year, it won't matter. BRAHHH, BRAHH, BRAHH!!!!! /s

(Sorry the year of that being the currently stated Dec 2022, as that date keeps moving)

I love my model S but don't always love the Yoke. Application of these $8 clear round buttons have made a world of difference. I can now feel the buttons and not have to look down before pressing. And interestingly, the buttons are now more, rather than less responsive. And I think they look really good--should come this way from the factory.

Lots of different options but this is the pack I bought on Amazon:

Just a heads-up that not all clear round buttons work. The ones listed in this thread are out of stock. I bought some other brand and they did not work. No amount of pressing would activate anything.

Maybe I should sell the extras for $5 each Happy to send you a few if you send me private msg. with address.

I used these and they worked: soft close buttons

You also have to make sure, at least in my case, that some of your actual finger contact the button. That is why one user mentioned setting them off center a bit as a quick locator.

I've since removed them though and just glance down or feel around as one instance I couldn't get my wipers to fire and so I removed the button.

I can't find these on Amazon anymore, and ideas where else I can get them?

I am in Dallas, if you want we can meet up and I can give you some of the extra ones I have. I just need to find where my wife moved them and we are good.

Thanks, but a kind member already mailed them to me.

If this works your seriously the man. Huge issue for me. I don’t have issues with turn signals like everyone else. Only thing I’m insanely struggling with is this horn.

I ordered them directly from bottlecapco.com. I'm getting 100 so if anyone wants to buy in, shoot me a PM.
