Looks really good. Super simple and discrete install, and a much more discreet design rather than the slightly too aggressive and big buttons. tempted to go for this although would have been better had they brought it out before Tesla allowed you to customise the left wheel

I bought mine last Sunday. It’s cheaper to buy from https://enhauto.com ($199) the link provided in last weeks thread was closer to $270.
Too bad they didn’t include a usb hub in the design.

The light under the sliding door? I didn’t know it actually went off when the sliding door was closed. This would be the same for those with add on USB inserts as well surely? Are you concerned about battery drain, or light leakage in the dark?I have ordered one too
Only thing to consider is the cupbaord light will stay on, hopefully only when driving..

I agree.
It looks really quite cool and clearly well thought out and designed. Except I can’t help but feel I’ll never use it.
if it has haptics as you spin, its almost worth it for AC control without looking. I tend to fiddle more as the Y doesn’t cool as quickly as the 3 it feels. wiper speed will be useful too, and heated seat adjustment without wasting a shortcut space on the screen

I really like the look of this though am a bit twitchy about any affect it may have on the warranty
Is it a case of just removing it before any service/trips to the SC or just leave it in and there's no issues...?
I guess those with the S3XY buttons could share their experience with how it 'sits' currently
Any help is appreciated

We have them in both Tesla. Had two recent mobile service visits on our M3P and there was no mention of them from either service person. The service was to change a rear light cluster suffering from moisture retention and a cabin air filter change while they were here, so not a very invasive service. It was two service visits because they didn't bring both light clusters on the first visit.I really like the look of this though am a bit twitchy about any affect it may have on the warranty

I can see the utility. I used to quite like the iDrive in our old BMW so the rotary controller appeals. Given the early bird pricing I figure there is little to lose. If I don't like it can probably sell it for close to purchase price once the new price climbs so I've ordered one.

Does anyone have a link to the thread referenced?
So the new commander will also work with an additional 8 buttons ?
Curious, might this be a suitable alternative to the buttons , or is the strait forward nature of the button perceived to be advantageous for specific functionality?
With the knob, it can potentially replace multiple buttons for the up/down fidelity, Consolidating functionality.
Its a shame the output on the OLED screen couldn't be closer to eye level to be able to quickly navigate between functionality not committed to memory.
Maybe even a pop over widget on the main screen to cycle between features, and feature value, to then fade away after a short preset.
I haven’t tried the Knob (obviously) but there are some functions I think I still want separate buttons for. We use one to fold/unfold the mirrors placed near the window for example. Also one for each rear passenger to control their heated seats. So I think, for us, a mix of both may be ideal.

Here’s an interesting observation: Tonight my 5-year-old Model 3 for the first time displayed a warning message about needing to service the 12V battery and that the “electrical system is unable to support all features”. But it was still able to drive. But I noticed during my drive that none...
