we are into "sticking bits on" territory here, different category to things like the frunk/trunk kits, gonna say "meh".

I feel like this defeats the whole clean aesthetic somewhat.
Also I would echo the above - I don't want a completely different UI on another screen. It looks super basic too, and there's no mention of whether you can customise the software/display, etc. I would want this to be like the X/S centre display.
Impressive tinkering though overall by Hansshow.

I might be tempted by an exceptional Heads up Display aftermarket implementation. But might is the operative word. No desire to have cables all over the dashboard

oops I sound like Debbie-Downer today. Be REALLY careful with audio stuff. for a 10" subwoofer there is no way that a plastic box and such a small enclosure is going to give you anything below 100hz. The reason the 6" factory Premium woofer kinda "works" is because it's a ported design, I am still really unhappy with the idea of it being in a plastic enclosure but at least it is not confusing speaker size and enclosure size.
I reckon the factory 6 ported would perform better across the range than that 10" option. Sometimes form promises a lot but in reality you don't fool a 10" speaker to do anything useful with that kind of design.
p.s. if anyone is handy with CNC-milling or laser-cutting aluminium plate at maybe 3" thickness to a custom shape, can you PM me as I may have a little project for them, in relation to the factory woofer in the boot (premium systems)

That would get my money way before the display. Bass is sadly lacking in the SR+ and the sound system could be better overall.
Might be worth trying the cheapest option.

On the Hansshow point, they do a set of backlit handles for the M3 that’d be higher on my list.
Was looking into this kit and read this post:
SR+ Audio Upgrade w/wiring harness : TeslaModel3
Seems there are concerns with the compatibility of the kit and certain model years.
The sound system in the Model 3 (the Premium version anyway) was designed by ex-Bang and Olufsen engineers. I trust their wisdom on part combinations, sizing, etc than Hansshow, to be honest. That being said I've not heard the non-Premium system to compare.

I know some of the people at a high end audio design, manufacturing and consultancy who have their name on some higher end vehicle hi-fi systems. I had a 1:1 demonstration by their MD sitting in a vehicle that should not be compromised for space.
Lets just say that audio comes some way down the priority list and price points, location and space are very much compromises dictated by the vehicle manufacturer that are outside the audio designers control.

Just checked and I have rear shelf speakers as they can be seen through the mesh. Will follow this Reddit poster to see how it goes.
It is annoying to actually have the speakers but not use them.

I have hifi in a dedicated room that cost considerably more than my M3. Well mastered FLAC music via the Tesla Premium system has a sound quality that is every bit as enjoyable.
Just out of interest and as we are on the subject of speakers, I seem to remember reading that when the Model 3 first immerged that there was talk of an aperture or something in the rear parcel shelf to let the bass from the sub woofer through for cars fitted with Premium Sound System. Was that true and does anybody have it - coz I don't. My base level is ok but only on high volume. Anybody else's like that (I've tweaked the equaliser for more base too)

A believe that it let road noise in so they sealed it off. Early Model 3's must have been really loud or sealing it off had negligible effect.
