Can we just remove one latch and not use it?

 

[random155]

IT can be removed? Really? That will be an idea.

It could possibly be done, but I'm not in the position to spend the money and not have it work... maybe someone else is. The only issue I can think about about is that with the one latch removed the car may think that the frunk is open all of the time? Just a thought.

This is a mod i always wanted to do. It works on my 2015 P85D and the refresh front bumper. I believe if you have two bumper hooks you are out of luck.

Well then. I made an install video and I hope this help our future owners who want to tackle the project!

Hey this is off topic but what lip and spoiler and exterior mods have you made? I'm buying a MS same year and I love your look

Looks good I had messaged you on IG to ask about the lip but didn't hear back and just circled back to this thread.

How was the install? Is it just held by a few rivets?

 

[nguyentoogood]

You have to remove the front bumper and then 4 bolts and 3M.

Subscribing incase somebody figures out a 2 latch solution.

 

[BigNick]

Awesome.
Should have been this way from the factory.

Same here. I'd love this on my older car.

This is really cool, will probably get one of these in the spring. I almost never use my frunk because the trunk is just much more convenient due to the power liftgate.

Anyone get this to work on the two latch Hood.?

 

[Corsair]

Got my installed today. The toughest part was actually putting the latch mechanism back due to lack of working space. Dropped the metal washer which took 30 minutes to grope around in the dark looking for it.

2 hours all in all for someone who never never took the frunk apart.

Now I gotta lie down and take a rest

 

[PuckPuck]

Is this one on eBay different than what you can find on TeslaOffer ? Model S Electric Frunk – Tesla Offer

 

[Corsair]

The controller box looks identical , probably all rolled out from the same manufacturer.

I actually followed the installation video from that website.

I'm interested but at a FAR lower price.

I think it's handy but I can't justify nearly $500 and a full day of labor (or paying someone else as many other will probably opt for so double that price tag) for something I rarely use. Would I use it more if it was automatic? Maybe. Most likely what I would do is continue using the automated hatch as I currently do and once in a great while need to open the frunk and be reminded that I installed that option that I never use so many months ago.

Speaking of price, the price of the eBay one has been all over the place. It was $500, then $479, then down to $409 (still too pricey) and now it's $450. It should be about half of the price that it is given the parts associated with the kit and once it is I'll consider getting one. I just don't see myself using it frequently enough to justify the price tag currently.

It’s different in my case as I use the frunk far more than the trunk. I love Indian food and order lots of take outs and groceries go there too. Keeps the cabin scent free.

I had called around and they were charging between $200-400.

Once I get my kit in this week, I will see how hard it is to install. Anyone around OC/LA ... you are welcome to see us install the kit. We did the softclose already and it took about 3 hours.

So you bought the soft closing kit and BoringMod installed it for you? How much was parts and labor?

I interested but don't want to do the install myself.

Thanks
