Side note: one of the things I have scheduled for my MS is a front/back dash cam. About 30 minutes ago, driving up I-95, it's raining hard and out of no where a car starts to fish tail in the middle lane. First he was fish tailing in his lane, and then he was side ways back and fourth between 3 lines. I'm talking perpendicular on the interstate front to the right, front to the left. At the same time a semi is behind us full speed trying to stop while we are trying to stop but not fishtail either. Until we were able to safely just pull out to the side of the interstate so the semi could keep going.
Worst 10 seconds I've ever had in a car, even worse that my kids were in it. In the no fault state I live in, I would have had to fight fault too.

Whoa...glad ya'll are all ok. I know the feeling as NY is also a no-fault state. I-95 up here is a mess as well. I try to avoid it like the plague.
I picked up a couple of the Spytec A119. I haven't had a chance to completely install them "professionally yet. I just quickly stuck up the front cam the minute I got home yesterday. I just have the power cable hanging down the rear mirror to the 12v outlet in the center console for now. I'm gonna follow teslatap's ultimate 2017 tesla dashcam guide in the next week to run the power properly and install the second cam in the rear.

Not yet. They said it could be up to 6 Weeks! I sure hope not as we have a 1 time a year vacation planned with the car in AUG!
I’m kind of in the same boat. We have a planned family road trip the last week in July, ordered on 6/14 so maybe a bit tighter.
As someone who is still waiting for their Tesla to arrive, I am wondering what the carpet is for?

Those that got your Cars already, did you have a factory tint? I have an appmnt tomorrow to tint but I was looking at my windows and they seem to already have tint of some level? Except windshield. Not sure of its factory or the previous owner added it
Mostly all cars come from the factory with some level of tint on the windows. Some makes are darker than other.
Keep in mind the existing tent when you pick your new tint % comply with state laws, if you care about that sort of thing : )

@ChrgdTeCHick what brand seat guards are those in the rear? Looking for something similar to help protect the leather from the car seats.
Those look perfect.

Thanks for the feedback. My previous ICE didnt have such obvious notion of it so i wasn't too sure. I do care as I would prefer to keep the getting pulled over to zero as much as possible. In FL you can go pretty dark though which helps to go darker and be legal. If I understand correctly, you are referring to the current one will make what I choose even darker than a window without any, which makes perfect sense.
After 10 years of car seats and the very heavy steel frame Radians, paying for a good covers is a must! All my cars survived without damage because of them. These are by far the thickest ones I've used!
