Love love the car but wish it had some improvements including visor mirror lights which my wife reminds me of EVERY time we go out..she has them on her Honda Odyssey...ouch! Was hoping for a Tesla solution but now it looks like no go esp. as recent cars don't have the 12 v receptacle in the center roof panel. Rick (aka artsci) inspired me with his lighted T project to think of a solution. I did some basic web research and design. With Rick's input, guidance and introduction to the amazing team at Oznium, we (Rick and I) are now in design mode for a cost effective solution for all Tesla owners who desire this option. Current technology makes this possible but the biggest challenge is making it fit under the visor cover....we are working on feasibility testing before manufacturing/marketing of the solution and I would welcome any comments/suggestion. Also, please let us know if anyone has any experience removing the mirror assembly from the visor.
Pics of the inspiration and project development are below. The final product will ideally:
1. Be an easy DIY solution involving attachment of the battery operated lights to the mirror with double sided tape
2. Be activated with a spring operated switch upon opening of the mirror cover
3. Have easily replaceable batteries CR2032
4. Allow the entire system to be removed/returned to stock if desired
5. Be maintenance free and cost-effective
6. Allow users to choose 1 or 2 light panels for each mirror
Let us know if there is any interest and what pricepoint would make this attractive.....we are thinking $100/set depending on production costs. Look forward to everyones input...
