Model 3 Power Liftgate?

[mec0t0]

Received my kit today. Came with foot sensor. Lots of Chinese labels. No instructions.
Seller had already email their very limited picture instruction sheet.
Box has a lot of hardware that was not shown in the website pics.

Got it from autoease.com for $599.00 shipped free. Took 6 days from order to delivery.

I hope to work on installing it over the July 4th weekend depending on Texas weather.

Is the autoease kit the same as Teslaoffer? Is the installation the same? Looking at getting the kit with foot sensor but Teslaoffer instructions are somewhat lacking.

$599 isn't bad at all. Is there a place that would do the installation for a reasonable price?

Tesla offer instructions are what I will follow to install it as the Autoease instructions are pretty sparse.
It appears to be the same kit but I have not seen the other kit to compare.
I just know it $50 less WITH the foot sensor.
The kit looks good. Nothing is in English though.
I have attached it.

I will take photos tomorrow at work and post them so everyone can see the kit contents.

Thanks in advance! I just ordered the Tesla Offer kit with foot sensor yesterday, hoping it arrives within a week or two.

I ordered the tesla offer kit also.

Wow!! You weren’t kidding... that is crazy sparse!! I’m impressed at how little information they gave for such an involved project!

Good thing Teslaoffers and Tesla Raj have their videos and instructions available. Best of luck and enjoy the new trunk.

If app and touchscreen don't work, that's an error with the CAN wires connected.

If the trunk button doesn't work, that's a problem with your Y connector or the buttons connected. Or both could be caused by the control box.

Do the secondary buttons do anything? They should at least make the module beep.

Got a new control box overnighted from Hong Kong, and now everything works. Great customer service via WhatsApp. Otherwise Calibred Customs (based in Los Angeles) installed everything else correctly. Charged about 90% of the cost of the kit.

Took pics of the box contents. There are a few items that I have no idea what they are for.
Was not able to start the installation yet. Will attempt to get an answer from autoease for the extra parts.
Going to spend a little time looking at the M3 service manual before starting. I think I might be able to save a few connections if I know what harnesses are in the trunk already.

Teslaoffer uploaded a new install video today that’s pretty informative when combined with their previous install video and the one from Tesla Raj.

I would love to see this same type of setup for the frunk. Even if it was just the soft close so I don't have to push on the hood.

already done by i1tesla.
I didn't do the auto frunk open but I did change the spring to make it easier to close the frunk.

if you go that route, somebody in this thread also recommended replacing the plastic end piece.

That's not the same thing.

 

[Goodtohave]

I would love just a foot sensor for the frunk as it is (I did the spring mod)

Such a pain to use the phone to open it when my hands are full.

I guess a fob may be the way to go

 

[MP3Mike]

You shouldn't have to use your phone itself as you can just walk up and hit the button on the trunk. (if your phone works as a key.)

I think someone making a foot switch that triggered that button would be very easy and inexpensive.

Autoease box contents. Happy to take closeups if anyone needs them.
I have not had time to start install yet.
