Cybertruck Terrestrial Armor Package Back in/out of Stock

[sys700]

No I just meant when you take the front fairings off and replace them with nothing, it looks fine in my opinion. When you take the rear fairings off and replace them with nothing, it looks dumb. That kit is fine. I have it currently while waiting to get the armor.

Easy to install? There were no instructions in the box.

Yes. But some tricks

Make sure all the clips are properly removed before putting it on. line the back one up so it sits nicely and apply the pin clips. Then use the metal pinch clip thing for final positioning.
Make sure the little metal clip sits between the two raised little lines that are in the plastic delete part on the inside side of the car.

Front ones are not easy to F up

He’s only doing the fronts since he has the armor package. And yeah, the fronts are a walk in the park. Just pop the push pins (I think there’s 3? Maybe only 2), slap em on there, and put the push pins back in.

Thanks. Misunderstood the assignment.

So I checked my Tessie app. In town driving, around 350-400 Wh/mile. On the highway going 85-90, about 500 Wh/mile. Really not much of a change in the last week based on how I usually drive:

This helps. Thank you.
I’ve realized my light bar alone has impacted my wh/mi in double digits. So, not something I want to keep attached outside of off roading.

Really? The factory lightbar?

Really? The factory lightbar?

Yes.
I have the 2024 TSportline lightbar.
No issues with it, but definitely impacts efficiency like any other light bar would.

FWIW, I haven’t been able to measure an impact of the factory bar on mine.
I understand it probably does affect it but pasted to the glass like that it’s barely perceptible.

Picture with the fronts just removed?

Tsportline isn't factory lightbar. But at least it would be easier to remove if you didn't need it attached on roadtrips.

I’ll get you some after work unless someone beats me to it

I just removed them this afternoon.

Bonus: I can use auto-lower mode now without fearing about hitting parking curbs.

I didn't get my Terrestrial Armor install like I thought I would on Oct 27th. Got to SC to discover that the parts/package had not officially arrived yet. Harumph.....I had gotten an app message that it was able to be scheduled 10 days prior and made the appointment. Tesla service misfire. I had a couple other issues to look at so the appointment wasn't wasted. The service writer had said he thought the parts would be in this week, but I've gotten no update. He also said he might send a mobile crew to do it, which I highly doubt since I think they need a lift to do the install. Apparently that SC hasn't done an Armor install yet. I created another service request for the install, but now Dec 8th is soonest. Another day, another service saga..............
