    Best way to glue on a used OEM Beast bar

    Me again, lol. Your plan is good. I’ve not used those clamps before, but they look great. I’d still try to remove at least some (the leading edge) of the red film once it’s in place. Getting it perfectly positioned will be tricky, and with adhesion promoter it’ll grab, fast. Failing that...

    Best way to glue on a used OEM Beast bar

    This really is the project that keeps on giving! I think you could use a solder-seal butt connector...if you watch the second (19s) video on this page, you'll get an idea of what's needed, but I think you just about have enough wire for it.

    Best way to glue on a used OEM Beast bar

    I wonder if you can get a blade under it. It'll obviously rough up the surface below, but that doesn't really matter. I've used something like this before: https://www.amazon.com/DIYSELF-Scraper-Aquarium-Inspection-Wallpaper/dp/B09H6SP3CS (not recommending that brand, the one I have is ancient...

    Left CT plugged in for a week while on vacation, 2-10kWh per day

    I'm loosing 2-3% per day when it's parked in the garage at home, no sentry, no schedules, no COP, nothing to keep it awake beyond the usual stuff that's also active in the Model Y, which is generally <1% per day. No question CT is more thirsty when it's busy doing nothing, but I can't even be...

    Roof Applique now available for $150 in the Tesla Shop

    Added the option for Roof trims without the access panels for the Xpel Armor. Currently working on the new 'false wall' that Tesla has updated in the vault.

    Best way to glue on a used OEM Beast bar

    VHB, done right, works exceptionally well, especially on glass. The challenge with a piece this large is maintaining a constant contact area (having cleaned both surfaces and prepped with adhesion promotor. This technique is the best way to ensure you maximise the contact area. I really don't...

    XPEL Window Tint Film Officially Recommended by Tesla

    Since you're in Dallas, you might as well have Xpel install it. They have a big facility, and did a great job on my Rivian (matte wrap + tint).

    Unable to move seat & wheel from Easy Entry mode

    Update, the most recent s/w update cleared the issue (maybe intentionally, maybe just because if forces a deeper reboot, we'll never know...)

    Am I alone on this? (Poll)

    Not super sure, but I don't see why not, once tint is on, it really cannot be removed other than by peeling from an edge. If I can find a spare bit of tint, will test.

    Am I alone on this? (Poll)

    Hi all. Since reading this thread, I've been testing different options. A suction mount is the easiest option to install, but most look like they belong in a bathroom, they're white and quite bulbous. I've finally found an option that's all-black, and can fit on the windshield, as shown, or the...

    Unable to move seat & wheel from Easy Entry mode

    Nah, it's not that. Haven't done anything internally for months. Other than lights there's nothing modified internally. There was an issue early on with the seat not moving, don't recall if the wheel had an issue at the same time, but that time they were at least stuck in a normal position.

    Unable to move seat & wheel from Easy Entry mode

    None of the buttons work (technically they probably do, it's the motors that are not), but the truck thinks they do, as it offers to save after every (non) movement. Same for wheel. Passenger seat moves, drivers lumber does nothing, same for the seat, it's stuck in the most rearward position. I...

    Unable to move seat & wheel from Easy Entry mode

    yeah. Tried every which way. Seat & wheel never move, including when in drive. Somethings not right.

    Anyone been able to use the $2500 Voucher code in service or on a different Tesla?

    We bought a Juniper a couple of weeks ago, they automatically applied the balance of the voucher credit (around $1400).

    Unable to move seat & wheel from Easy Entry mode

    yeah, tried all of that, as well as getting another profile owner in the truck. Nothing makes the wheel or seat move, even though it thinks it is. I did open a service ticket, but that's so far been ignored by the SC (no surprise, they're still ignoring the Qi charger upgrade request I put in a...

    Unable to move seat & wheel from Easy Entry mode

    So this is kind of a weird one, curious if anyone else has had this, and found a way around it. Today when I got in the truck, everything was normal, until the seat and wheel didn't adjust once I closed the door. Everything else (air, audio etc) was normal. I went to adjust the seat manually, it...

    Has Tesla Given Up On Providing Actual Smart Summon On The CT?

    Wasn't me that said for sure, but I agree, the CT is destined to slot in as a tier 2 with Model S, and Model X for as long as that survives (I love the MX, but really don't think it's long for this world). Like those two, seems unlikely CT will ever get any meaningful updates (at least, another...

    Has Tesla Given Up On Providing Actual Smart Summon On The CT?

    I mean, there is some evidence. The FSD team does have some that are vehicle-focused, but most are platform focused. We know there's around 50k of CT's in the wild, and the front camera still is not used for FSD. The fleet telemetry is limited just by virtue of having a smaller fleet. We don't...

    Has Tesla Given Up On Providing Actual Smart Summon On The CT?

    Sure seems that way. Not sure if it's lack of training data (limited/small fleet) or just more focus on tuning the Robotaxi fork (I very much doubt CT will be Robotaxi-capable anytime soon).
