No one has coins in their center console? They work perfectly for this. Pick a coin, any coin.
Like bitcoins? Don’t see how those would help. What do you speak of?

I added a keyring hole to your design so I can keep it attached to my trailer keys.
I just keep a couple in the back storage area along with the hitches. I have a little box of bits and pieces in there.

Coins? 20th century thing right? Little pieces of metal?
I keep a few quarters in my center console in order to buy lemonade from kids’ stands in the summer. Makes their day. More so now with the cyber truck than my old minivan ever did lol. Also, I never know when I’ll come across a pinball machine and need some quarters to play.

Fair points. Pay them kids in dollar dollar bills though man. They are too young to understand inflation if they are selling lemonade and you have an adult onus to understand it for them. 😉

I had tried Cyberswag’s replacements before, but didn’t like that they wouldn’t stay with the cover.

https://cyberswag.us/

Cyberswag DM’d me and offered to send a revised part that would stay with the cover. I finally got them installed.

Assuming they hold up, these are a great solution. I remove/replace my cover weekly to tow our trash cans down the driveway, so I’m looking forward to using these.

My story goes like this: I used our bike rack a handful of times this summer. The last time I took off the rack for the season and was reattaching the hitch cover, I forgot I needed a flathead screwdriver (stupid design, IMO), but before I could go back to the toolbox, I got interrupted. Hours passed and then I had to go out and pick something up. Realizing about 3 miles down the road that I forgot to tighten the locking fasteners, I turned around and found my crushed hitch cover at an intersection. I felt like a total idiot.

Thankfully, Tesla now makes it super easy to order replacement parts, so I reordered the hitch cover without issue, but for some reason that I still don't understand, I absolutely cannot order the turn-lock fasteners. Here is the link to them:
https://parts.tesla.com/en-US/catal...ac0-94d2-c6f4dbfa275c?partNumber=1868648-00-A

Please let me know if you can figure out what I'm doing wrong, but every attempt at ordering these things (quantity 1, quantity 3, quantity 27, etc.) fails with a "Max quantity reached" with no ability to get them in the cart let alone checkout. I'm guessing if I drove to my local SC they'd probably be able to source them for me, but why waste an hour driving to/from a SC when I can spend 4 hours playing with TinkerCAD and my 3D printer?

I used the photos from this thread of the original fasteners and the aftermarket one to try and come up with something that worked for me. I wanted something that would be secure (hence the little nipples that click into place), something that didn't require any tools (went with sort of knurled design that of course is triangular), something that didn't hang down as far as the aftermarket ones, and something I could reliably produce on my midgrade 3D printer.

Feel free to give it a whirl (.stl attached) or improve upon it if you desire. I printed up 2 extras that I'll now keep in the glovebox. I used PETG for mine, which should handle the cold and the heat, though if I break or lose them, I can now print a replacement rather than trying to source the unobtanium Tesla OEM turn lock fasteners.

You're a god amongst men! Thank you for this! Lost my cover, and fasteners. Finally got a new cover from Tesla...doesn't include fasteners. Printing these now, thank you!
