Yes. Don't even waste your time. Not possible, not happening.
Well, maybe with tape.
Do you mean like 3M VHB double stick tape they use for the spoilers?

Okkkkk and what exactly does that have to do with this thread?
What exactly do you think regular civilians here in the US are going to do? Should we stop discussing Tesla? Should we sell our cars? Will that help? What’s your point exactly? People died by the thousands in many areas of the world? Does that mean we should end our life too?

I suppose we need to start at the basics. What a "fact" is might be a good place to find some common ground.
"They will not be offering paid or warranty-related retrofits" is not a fact until someone with the authority to make it a fact actually makes it one. Last I checked, "Glide on the Internet" does not have the authority or position within Tesla to go on record and make this a fact. Thus, it's the opinion of a cranky guy on the internet, not a fact.
Maybe this is the breakthrough we need!
It is a fact until Tesla breaks with years of policy and says otherwise.I suppose we need to start at the basics. What a "fact" is might be a good place to find some common ground.

Also, feel free to reach out to Tesla directly or their PR department for comment. Let us know what you hear back.
Feel free to pull up the parts catalog and get a toolbox subscription if you want to delve that deeply into it.
It’s a fools errand and you can feel free to run it yourself.

Oh boy. Sounds like we have another word to define. This is going to take longer than I thought.

More and more people want it to be true. So let's pile on. Next thing someone will volunteer to tweet Elon to say we demand retrofits on Matrix headlights.
I will second, and say not happening. One might buy one, and make it light up, but I am confident they will not be able to make it work the way Tesla wants it to. I really think one wants them to work correctly. This isn't a screw in bulb. So add me to the list of this isn't happening.
There is no way to prove something is not happening that just isn't going to happen, or I would go even further and say isn't, and wasn't even considered.

That this thread is about refreshed headlights and people are arguing if they can or can't be retrofitted, and now its more on personal attacks to one another lol. We can all agree to disagree and move on waiting until we get official word from Tesla. If they provide retrofits great if not still great, at the end of the day its just headlights
That was back in 2015-2016.got a ludicrous retrofit and heated steering wheel and pano roof 2 and MCU2 on my Og p85d. But tesla doesn’t ever do retrofits. Right.
Try taking a P85D in for a Ludicrous retrofit TODAY and let us know what they say.
Spoiler: they WILL NOT do it. Source: Tesla.

If the S new headlights are like the 3 and Y matrix headlights, the physical hardware is compatible, but pre-refresh cars won't have the software so the headlights won't function correctly.
Here is an example of a service center installing MYLR headlights( ie the old headlights) onto the MYP that have the matrix.....
And it is the same case for people trying to install the matrix headlights onto MYLR's. They don't function correctly due to the lack of software.
