Abstract Oceans’ XPEL armor hides a lot of sins. Just something to consider if it really bothers you. 😊 https://www.abstractocean.com/products/ultra-tough-xpel-armor-side-mirror-protection

Same here, lost FSD when I went to leave work a few weeks ago (it was fine at lunch). I did a scroll wheel reset, no difference. Connectivity was fine (as audio book played all the way home with no issues). The next morning all was well again. I posted about the consequences of this...

Thanks for your review, I ordered it a couple weeks ago too, and now I’m just waiting for a day that it is not raining (and I’m not working) to try it out. I’m even more excited to try it now!

Thanks for your quick reply, Gary. I’ll definitely give it a try with no ceramic (and research ceramic coating removal steps). Worst case, I just do the non-ceramic-coated half with your Cyberbrite and then start a phase-two trial vs. my already coated ceramic side! 🤣

I’m going to give it a try! Just ordered! Over a year ago, I started a test: frunk and driver side only—I de-ironed then ceramic coated. Then the tailgate and right side—I de-ironed but left them ceramic-free. A year later, I see basically no difference in the finish. Both sides look identical...

This was my first EV as well. I daily drove some nice sporty cars before it—Corvette, M5, AMG GT S—so I totally get the whole ICE thing. I absolutely love the Cybertruck though, and I’ll never go back to ICE for my daily driver! I’ve done all kinds of mods to it now (and keep adding more). It’s...

I’d say it’s an appliance in four of the five modes… but when in Mad Max, it gets kinda insane (in a good way). Big accelerations (wife gripping console and door), as it lunges happily to the right or left passing cars from either lane, quickly going back, and repeats as necessary while winding...

It won’t back into my garage (it needs to in order to access the charger), and it cannot navigate my work parking lot. I keep trying it, hoping all the disengagements are helping it learn. We have five separate access gates, but only one is for employees. It has finally (most days) learned the...

Last night, getting ready to go home from work, my FSD wouldn't turn on. It was even greyed out in the menu. I did a double scroll wheel reboot, but it still wouldn't come back online. Did this happen to anyone else yesterday? I used it at lunchtime with no issues. This morning it's back to...

Hey Urander, I just finished and installed my new rear hatch molle panel (and put back on your air spoiler as asked)! 😂 More to come!

I actually made that too. At first I mounted the antenna directly to the cap, but when lowered, the added angle from the cap combined with the ball mounts angle when rotated pushed the antenna outward when stored. The wedge mount is made from 1/8” aluminum plate and then powder cater to match...

No license is required for a CB (I do actually have one for HAM radios, but this does not require one…that license is fairly easy to get though, just reading a prep book and taking a test). The President George is rated at 4 watts on AM/FM (carrier/mean power), and 12 watts PEP on SSB. I don’t...

Yes, underneath the stainless fascia is a metal box that gets fastened to it with the small visible fasteners on the sides of the fascia. Those 8-32 fasteners go through the fascia, then through the Cybergearco holes (the original ones that held their top on), and into the inner metal box I...

I can send you the .dxf cut files, and the bend info, any local metal shop could use those to get you the base parts (just those were a bear to figure out), but the absolute time consumer was the tig welding and final finish of the stainless. I used the polishing pads recommended by Tesla for...

Good catch! I literally took it off today to use as a template for a new external Molle panel that I’m working on next! The idea is that I’ll sandwich the new panel between the air spoiler and the hatch cover (stay tuned, as I’m just getting started on that project!) 😂 BTW, I also had the Gen 1...
