Is there anywhere in car you could stash the cover if you end up needing all the extra cargo space unexpectedly?
Any update on driving noise?

I feel the car now has less noise coming from the back. Or maybe it’s just my scarped knuckles looking for positive rationale for this whole ordeal.
FWIW I hear my golf clubs rattling around far less.

Submitted my order about 2 weeks ago.
Pick up date is this Sat Aug 13 according to the app.
They haven't said anything back except pushing out service schedule because they said they need more time.
So I guess it is possible to order these parts in Canada.
If you are going to try, I suggest choosing mobile service instead of picking a service centre like I did. Mobile service should actually driver these parts right to your door.

Yeah, in this camp as well, will do it primarily for a quieter cabin. Would love to see more data on this. Whether it actually reduce the cabin noise, also on the speaker quality as well, it is my understanding there are two speakers in the trunk. Will it have effect on the sound quality?
I’m guessing it should unless Tesla changed the Fremont panel from 2021 to 2022.. I have a 2021 and will try to order.. I don’t see any other part for this area other than the 2, regular and this special one..
It does seem all of the retrofits here are 2022 cars.

If I recall, it sits below the speakers (from a photo or two I’ve seen)
The parts catalogue only shows 2 versions of the c pillar panel. The non parcel version and parcel version. So I would imagine 2021 is the same as 2022.
IMO I don't think they would change the design mounting points to the body side panels. The hard tooling involved to design a change w/different mounting points across all WW manufacturing locations doesn't make sense from a cost and part perspective, and then adding on different C Pillar parts on top of that.
My guess is that for plastic injection molding this could be done from the supplier end to add the shelf ledge modifying the existing tool(s) for left + right, maybe even starting out w/soft tooling in Shanghai last year until it was vetted and additional hard tooling created (maybe w/additional shots) for parts distribution WW in Berlin and Texas.

I've got a MYP 2021 (Fremont), I'm picking up my parts on the 12th. I will be installing them (or attempting to?) that day, so I should have some details on that coming by end of the week. Granted, this is of course if they actually got the parts in, I haven't heard anything from them after I approved the estimate.
