Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room
- Thread starter Tiger
- Start date
btw, Rob Mauer on his show yesterday, also was not initially confident the swivel was Tesla rather than aftermarket, as well.
Good to know it's not aftermarket!
Model X OEM Tilting Screen Thread
Long-shot, but: I saw one report that it's using the same motor that's used in the seats, and that someone was able to fit it into the screen housing, and once hooked up the UI enabled the controls for it to swivel (SWIVEL!).
Probably a BS rumor, but interesting nonetheless. Could indicate a potential "OEM-like result via aftermarket install" path for the future (assuming Tesla doesn't block it in SW.

It’s real wood, just a thin veneer. I have an S Plaid with the wood, looks amazing with white seats. Hopefully I can order the wood trim for my X Plaid

My EDD just updated from July to May 17 - June 6.
Got an update 2 hours ago my car was at the Kennesaw, GA Tesla store which means it's on the truck and making a pit stop, probably to drop off other cars.
Now just wondering if the driver will be able to make it down to Florida from the origin of Birmingham, AL within his 11 hour driving window, lol.
I'm not hopeful I will take delivery tomorrow, and if I do it will likely be late. I want it sooooooooo bad

I mean all you gotta do is look at the UI. It is impossible to code your own UI and controls like that.
I think they will take 1-2 days for inspection before they can release the car. My cane is at my local SC for more than 24 hours and my delivery is 2 days awayGot an update 2 hours ago my car was at the Kennesaw, GA Tesla store which means it's on the truck and making a pit stop, probably to drop off other cars.

Spoke to a local delivery advisor today, he said (as far as he knows), any vehicles produced after April 22, 2022 have the swivel feature. My VIN 341xxx, he said, likely does not have the feature but it might and he said we’ll just have to wait and see at delivery.
Update: I was told my vehicle build date is 4/26 by another sales advisor so it seems as though (as far as she knows) it should have the feature

Did he mention anything about retrofits? So far I've yet to hear anyone reporting "no". Just "unknown" so far.
I was told it’s unlikely by the local delivery advisor, but he could be wrong because he also didn’t even know the build date of the vehicle yet told me that it doesn’t have the swivel feature.
Hoping (regardless of my vehicle having the feature) that they offer retrofits to those of you who would like it

Just posted a Poll to see how everybody is feeling about Tesla's progress over the next few months:

Model X Delivery Progress Poll
Tesla is still over a year behind on Model X deliveries. How many of you think that they'll get caught up to being only a year behind by the end of summer? I'm excluding orders outside of North America because I doubt anybody thinks those are shipping this year...

FYI, Tesla, I do NOT intend to sell the MX I ordered in January 2021. I plan to loyally drive it until I buy my next Tesla, like I have done since 2012, in case you are reading this.... (as he crosses his fingers, hoping the intern on duty decides to assign a VIN to the Tesla Faithful...)

I am sure it is possible. but Likely Tesla would not do it.. Now I would happily even pay for these if tesla were to do these retrofits. Maybe someone with enough twitter following can talk elon into some of these retrofits.
Matrix requires different electronics. Doubtful it can be retrofitted but all refresh cars were advertised as coming with a swiveling screen. I think Tesla will have to figure that one out but then again, we know several things Tesla has failed on from vanity lights to FSD.
