Very interesting video. Also good to know that it’s so easy to replace the inductive charger in minutes.

Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

Yeah, it is a well designed setup, imo. I especially like how much unused space is hidden under there, which is where the microcontroller(s) for my project usually live. I removed them for the video, to avoid confusing folks.

What has two thumbwheels and is now fully functional on my Plaid?

Also, I take back what I said about the yoke a bit ago. It is not x/y coordinate based, it is just four pressure values from each side. Each of the pressure values correspond directly to haptic buttons (the light up bits). That said, I'm pretty sure the combined inputs _can_ be used to create new virtual buttons on the yoke surface, so I'm still going to play with that.
It also backs up my assertion that the cruise control haptic button IS A BUTTON, because it literally is.

Wait til you see what I was able to do with two stalks and CAN control of the suspension.

Congrats on becoming Electrek Famous. If it weren’t for the good work of people like you posting and sharing freely on TMC, Fred Lambert wouldn’t be able to repackage and monetize it to feed his family!
I've done a lot of tinkering, but not anything I've shared before. I'm going to share things unrelated to this mod as time allows.
Sure is fun to have control of the controls...

It is always possible they will change things at any time, but most of what I'm using here has been stable in the firmware for years. I'd say there is a high likelihood folks will need to do an update if they have this for a few years, but just hard to guess. I designed this to all be unobtrusive, and with wifi update capability so that you don't have to dismantle the vehicle to update the controllers.
Interesting. It seems like just about every other update was breaking other third party integrations, like the third-party powered liftgate.
