Anyone have these?

Model 3 Windshield Wind Noise Reduction Kit

Do the cut down on the noise. Im thinking about getting them. The gap between the windshield and glass roof just looks odd, like it's missing a rubber gasket.

It helps but you will still have noise

I haven't noticed any wind noise from my car, but this will fix something that has bothering me, which is that this gap is a perfect place for crud to collect. When I picked up my car, it was apparent that it had been parked under a tree or a bush, as there was a lot of small pieces of tree debris in the channels. I spent some time cleaning it all out, but I'm expecting that over time, it will fill up with crap again. This seal would make it so that doesn't happen.

Probably going to order a set.....

Looking at getting it more for aesthetics than function

I’m sure it looks better but it looks like it belongs there

I used the following transparent molding to cover the edge and bottom of all the four doors, trunk, and middle roof gap.

$13 - Door Edge Guard/Protected Lining/Trim Molding (16Ft Clean,No Glue Required)

(I used two sets (32 ft) to cover all the Model 3 edges, 2 x $13 = $26)

How much does this protrude from door edge? With two young kids at 4 and 6 I probably need something like this. Do you have a pic or two installed on your car you can share? Thanks

I inserted a plastic moding inside the front roof gap.
I didn't tested but look smoother on the touch.
See below where I cover only half of the roof to show the difference.

The Rear gap is too wide to insert a molding inside.

Yea am wondering if doing rinseless washes there's no easy way to clean it out without a strong pressurized stream of water.

I heard that this kit is effective, but I'm worried that the gaps are there for thermal expansion of the glass, and that filling in the gap could cause the glass to crack on a hot day. Thermal expansion is a very powerful force.

I was concerned about it, but the plastic is very soft at ambient temperature. Just by streching it, the plastic moding extends a lot.

So do Tesla Engineers.....

Can anyone yell me what the thickness of the tubes for the roof gaps should be?

 

[Jimmy 1]

This is totally not needed...........

I finally got around to testing this and wasn't too impressed:
