Cyberbeast Lightbar Email Arrives!

[tbuck]

One day shoet of 11 months of picking up Lost Highway, I received the email to schedule my lightbar install.

I know there was a post about installs being halted until August to re-engineer the mount. I hope this is the new mounting method.

Scheduled for the 13th of August.

Be careful, mine fell off after a couple of months, while on a highway trip. Mine had a thick (1/2 ") bead that came apart in the bead itself with glue still on the window and light bar base.

I received the same notice last month and when I went to the service center for my missing tonneau slat repair last week, they had the present lightbar version, but confirmed a new one was in development and gave me the option to wait to see what the revised version would be. I decided to wait.

not a chance I'd install that lightbar the way it's designed. I've seen too many issues on here with the adhesive (see above). I wish they'd just lean on the aftermarket and allow the API to be accessed by third parties who clearly understand how to build lightbars better than they do.

Same. I can imagine there were quite a few engineers at Tesla beating down the doors of management to tell them that gluing a lightbar is a terrible decision. Should have never in a million years been approved in the first place.

Was yours installed during cold temperatures?

I have an appointment to have my lightbar "reinstalled" as it is failing and 1/2 of the adhesive has released. I have a long trip coming up in August and I don't want to go with 1/2 of my lightbar flailing. I want to just tell them to remove it and I'll wait for the redesign, or never install it again if that is not an option.

I thought maybe they were waiting to do it at the same time as the cantrail recall. Haven't heard anything yet about either.

So the service appointment I created to fix the lightbar also had the cantrail replacement recall added to it. I didn't add the cantrail, they did. But my lightbar was done like 3 months or so ago.

Do you have a Beast or just a Foundation series?

I think it may have been you that posted about that. I am waiti g for the review of the ticket so I can ask the question as to whether or not thos is the new install method.

So... you don't have your Beast yet?

 

[sozucom]

I go the Foundation bc I didn't want to wait for the Beast. It's still unclear to me if regular Foundations series will get the lightbar too.
