    Hydrophobic Rear Camera Cover by Abstract Ocean - excellent!

    I show the removal in the install video, but V1 uses VHB (black foam) adhesive, V2 uses a PVT (gel) adhesive. The easiest way to remove it is to pry it away with a trim tool, or even an old credit card or membership card, then 'roll' off any of the VHB residue with your thumb, and use the...

    Hydrophobic Rear Camera Cover by Abstract Ocean - excellent!

    PM me your order details. We ship 98%+ of orders next day, anything taking longer than 3 days gets automatically escalated to me (and there's none of those right now), so something must be up.

    💦 Superhydrophobic Rear View Camera Cover for Cybertruck - now shipping!

    Yup! it's been a busy few days getting the logistic of all of this sorted out. I've just hit send on all the emails, they take a while to deliver, but PM me if you don't see something in the next few hours. Anyone that purchased a V1 and didn't return/refund should get an email with a unique...

    💦 Superhydrophobic Rear View Camera Cover for Cybertruck - now shipping!

    Yup. We've shipped v2's to all active subscribers and switched the listing as well, any orders since yesterday will get the V2. All the updates (and results) are detailed here, the pictures below illustrate the changes pretty well. TLDR; can't see the cover in zoom levels >0.8, or in the 'full'...

    Cybertruck will be the last Tesla to use stainless steel exoskeleton

    My take on this is that the CT was another Elon vanity projection/moon shot/whatever, the same as the Model X (it was basically designed around his then-family). That's not to say it's a bad thing, but like the MX, the CT has a narrow target audience, that's either still narrowing or maybe...

    Rearview camera zoom feature!

    You can drag the window to either location. When you tap it, you'll see a 'drag bar' appear.

    Unwrapping a Cybertruck - removing a PPF wrap

    We're only guessing at this point, since it's the first stainless car since Delorean, and wraps have come a loooong way since then. But I do still think that any reputable product that uses a solvent-based acrylic adhesive will be fine. Paint obviously has a much smoother surface compared to the...

    Worried about hate crime - Want to buy a Cybertruck [LOCKED DUE TO POLITICS]

    I hate how the Cybertruck has become so politicized, although this is the case for many things in the US these days. When we first got ours (a year ago), people loved it. You couldn't take a drive anywhere without talking to someone about it, or their kids going crazy over it. Fast forward to...

    Unwrapping a Cybertruck - removing a PPF wrap

    Agree with everything @TWRAPS said here. The max time ours has stayed wrapped with the same color was about 3 months. For me, removal was twice as easy after parking it in the sun, but it mostly came of clean every time (3M 2080 the first time, various PPF wraps for the others, not all...

    How often do you use FSD?

    I really wish Tesla would re-add the rolling stop feature. I know the NTSB made them remove it (maybe that'll change with the new administration??), but my commute has maybe 15 stop signs, and it's really tedious, extremely rare anyone else is at the stop the same time I am, and even if there...

    How often do you use FSD?

    I'm the same, I try it most drives, but quickly getting annoyed by how it behaves. I'll also say that I find the M3 FSD generally better than the CT; not sure why, and version numbers are close enough, but the M3 set to 'hurry' mode takes no prisoners, but gets the job done well. The CT still...

    CyberTruck Confiscated in the UK

    Oh c'mon, it's not fud, lol. I've cut my head open 3x just wrapping the truck, being hit at 30mph would hurt a lot more than any other vehicle with a deformable front-end designed to be pedestrian friendly. i.e. the Model 3, with it's active hood. It's not been tested because it would be a...

    💦 Superhydrophobic Rear View Camera Cover for Cybertruck - now shipping!

    If you use the 0.5 view (I don't like it, but I know a lot do), then I think you'll be happier with V2, which should arrive in the next few days. Please reach out to support and mention this thread, and they can get you queued up for a V2. It will not completely resolve the issue though, but it...

    CyberTruck Confiscated in the UK

    Still more likely to garrote a pedestrian if it does make contact with them. UK legislation will never correlate the two, if the vehicle fails pedestrian safety standards, it doesn't matter what tech it has to avoid pedestrians. So many FSD edge-cases over there; not insurmountable, but it's a...

    CyberTruck Confiscated in the UK

    Yeah, it doesn't come close to meeting pedestrian safety standards in the UK, pointy + sharp = bad. In fairness, there's a lot of pedestrians and extremely narrow single-track roads compared to most of the US. You also have to be a bit mental to try to drive it over there, aside from motorways...

    Is it OK to wrap the Cyber Truck

    yeah, seen that TT, and variations of it, so many times now. Stick to a reputable vinyl or PPF brand, and use a good installer. We've wrapped/unwrapped ours 4x now (testing stuff, I'm not that indecisive!). If you remove the PPF incorrectly, there will be a bit of residue left behind, which is...

    Accessories problems

    There's some inaccuracies here, but it is complicated. Most companies will charge the card at the time of order, as opposed to when it ships. this is the default setting in Shopify, which many of us use. There is a way to place a payment authorization at the time of order, then charge when...

    Tips for cleaning the sides of the vault?

    I could never get ours looking good, tried a few of the products mentioned here. For now I've covered it with Xpel Armor (link, but not a plug, I promise :-), but I'm due a visit to the SC to take care of the recalls and get my wheel covers, so maybe I'll mention this, since @rharl managed to...
