For my fellow T-mat people

[hemiarch]

Perhaps I’m just late to the party and you already know about this but I wanted to share this aftermarket part for your aftermarket part.

It’s considerably more space saving and cheaper I think than anything T-mat sells except maybe those Sidio crate holders but then you also have to buy those specific crates.
No affiliation whatsoever with the seller but he appears to sell them in several different ABS (I think) colors including black which is what I got.
A 3d print file of this would be even better but I haven’t found one yet.

Do you guys have favorite t-mat accessories? Do they come from Tmat?

I would like to see something to hold a bike in place.

Lots of different pieces here:

Some guy even copied the individual panels. Looks like 8-10 spools of material though, so idk if it makes financial sense. The little custom clips are a great option though.

That’s some good stuff. The colored edge pieces are rather cool. Not sure I understand the purpose of filling in the recess x’s.

They are fantastic. Btw, they work well for frunk organization too.

Also, they are not necessarily just good for a full bed length setup. If you have a cybertent or horizontal shelf divider a shorter piece is a good way to get access to whatever is underneath it.
You can also leave gaps in it for things you want secured but don’t want to slide. Like in this case the power station and rinsekit. The fridge slides out but they don’t.

It's a bluey fridge! Looks like: https://www.teslafridge.com/products/40l-trunk-refrigerator-for-tesla-model-x

I think he also has the same fridge as me in the center console, sold by tesstudio, tlyard, cybergearco. The usual chinese resellers.

Are you 3d printing your own holding pieces?

That’s the subtrunk fridge from our model x. I hardly ever use it in the trunk but it’s my largest one and in that case I was transporting a birthday cake. Typically I’ve got the cabin fridge and the subtrunk freezer in the CT

I haven’t yet. Getting the notion it’s a good idea though.

Front the same seller - I wonder if you could maybe use these as links between the front section of the t-mat, and the back section, if you have them split to access the under-bed storage. Or is there some other way to link and unlink them (to access the storage) that I haven't discovered yet?

I put ramp fittings at the end of the back piece and the end of the tailgate piece. keeps them separated, allows the tailgate to swing up independently from the back.

I did that for a while too. The only drawback over the ziptie hinge approach is that when you pull it out, only the front moves and then you have to climb over it to slide out the back half.
Basically you thread zip ties through the last row of drain holes on the tailgate piece and the first row of drain holes on the piece closer to the cabin. You can still use the ramps too if you like. The zip ties let you pull out the entire Tmat but also function as a hinge when you want to open the subtrunk.
