Model 3 Accessories

[m4rtin]

Wasn't sure where to ask this but maybe these count as accessories.
I'm wondering what people use to check the tyre pressure (apart from the screen in the car) and to inflate them?
I used to do this at a service station for my ICE car but I'm not sure I want to do that with my M3.

Is something like one of these worth it?

I don't think I've ever needed to inflate the Model S tyres; purchased a 12V pump from Tesla but have only used it for pumping up kid bike tyres.

Did Tesla say when the floor mats will be available?

My last post here seems to have been deleted. Are we not allowed to criticise Tesla for their failings on this forum?

Sure you can. You will know when you get moderated.

You are allowed to criticise Tesla on TMC.
However I have deleted a number of posts recently due to other reasons such as ad hominem attacks, bad language and more. I don’t recall deleting any of your posts and if I did you would have received a warning message.

Make sure you add buy these to throw into your boot since there's no spare tyre or run-flats.

• $5.12 Tyre Repair Kit - Car Tubeless Tyre Tire Puncture Plug Repair Repairing Kit Needle Patch Fix Tool
  • You need 2 because the tool (at the needle) can break/bend easy. Cheaper buying multiple plastic as opposed to 1 stainless steel that will also bend at the needle.
  • I don't want to be stuffing around with sealant directly inside the hose - what a mess that would be.

• $49.95 15A 12V Compressor - TIREWELL 12V Tire Inflator - Heavy Duty Double Cylinders Direct Drive Metal Pump 150PSI, Air Compressor with Battery Clamp and 5M Extension Air Hose
  • You cannot exceed 15A for Tesla 3/S/X

Hey, people using sentry mode. Does the drives have to be formatted to fat32?

Yes it must be FAT32, and a folder TeslaCam created. I used 'AOMEI Partition Assistant Standard Edition 8.4' to do so, successfully.

Page 65 of the manual

Using Dashcam
Dashcam requires a dedicated flash drive with FAT32 format (NTFS and exFAT are not currently supported). Before you can use the flash drive for dashcam, you must manually add a base-level folder in the flash drive called “TeslaCam” (without quotation marks). This folder is required for Model 3 to know where to store the video files; dashcam does not work without it.

I fedex over extra sets of front and back boot liners, if anyone interested please pm me. I am based in brisbane city.

Has anyone tried the Taptes floor mats?

I'm trying to find some RHD carpet floor mats so my heels don't wear into the car's carpet, but all I can find is mats that look like they're designed to hold 3L of mud.

I don't think Taptes currently do RHD TM3 floor mats unfortunately. I got mine Alixpress (Luckeasy). Not the best looking but they will definitely help save that carpet.

Trunk and Trunk liners from Taptes are excellent btw..

 

[Zilla]

These are the only mats I could find for RHD at the moment.

There's no floor mats at Tesla shop for us Model 3 owners.
Once you pick up the car - you'll have nothing but the under carpet. You'll have to make due with generic floor mats to get by for now.

.. so I've put together my research into the best ones.

Currently I'm using Ford mats just to save my interior in my model 3 I picked up last week.

Model 3 Floor mats (Right Hand Drive) options:

• I BOUGHT THESE JUST TONIGHT $145 direct from LUCKEASY on aliexpress - you must include "Right Hand Drive (RHD)" in the comment to seller during checkout. (I've confirmed the seller can make them in RHD). p.s. Luckeasy has the best model 3 aliexpress store (check out the rocket).

• $183 Luckeasy on aliexpress again - Contact them to ensure there are RHD in this version. These are probably the best built ones on this list.

• $170 again direct from LUCKEASY on aliexpress - you must include "Right Hand Drive (RHD)" in the comment to seller during checkout.

• $1.00 - $15.00 / Sets | 30 Set/Sets (Min. Order) Aidezhou on alibaba - RHD - these would have been my preference.
  View attachment 458087
  
• $132 Custom Made with cross stitching RHD - grey, red, biege, but black sold out.
  View attachment 458093
  
• $190 Custom Made with cross stitching v2 RHD - contact them first to confirm colour and RHD availability.

Check out luckeasy's other floor mats here - Ask if they can make them in RHD though...

You're welcome.

Does anyone know who the makers of the 3D Maxpider floor mats are? I have tried googling for them but I only ever see companies selling them.
I want to contact them to plead with them to make some RHD versions of them. I figure if enough of us do it they will cave and make them

I bought some custom luggage for the froot. One bag has my extra charging cables, the other is for, well, other stuff as needed.

Model 3 tailored Frunk 2 bag set - NEW version 2.0

It fits perfectly and is well made of tough material.
