Failed experiment, 3D printed a small box, used a leftover Neodynium magnet, and positioned as close as possible under the rear camera.. even with maxium adjustment on the washer nozzles, it looks like it misses the lens, and it is visible in the rear view camera as well. Trying to see if a...
Well it sure looks like the REAL solution is to offer a healthy discount on a new HW4 model, and/or a trade-in credit on your old HW3 vehicle.. As they accumulate those older cars, and re-sell them, or use them for loaners, eventually they WILL have to upgrade them, or throw them away (not...
typically YEARS, if you press the button twice a day, 7 days a week.. I have 3 button remotes that came with my garage door openors that were installed in 2019, that are still on the original batteries :)
Yes it will, I think just attaching it with double stick tape to the overhead console as shown in several pictures, is "good enough" and far less work/easier to maintain as well, but good job OP
FYI, I did find a similar remote, 2 for $9.99 :)...
I have MyQ, and used it for the 30 day trial, I was going to buy it for the Tesla, but there "purchase" option would never go through on my credit card, I even had a case with a senior engineer, and when they had the %50 off sale, I was really aggravated with them (I think the 10 year plan was...

installs these, he has his own version for the side cameras, which uses this tiny nozzle availble on Amazon:

which are under $6, then all you need is to drill...
Tesla service is FAR from how they used to treat "early adopters" on the Model S, back in 2013.. They would drop your off, or give you a loaner, or give you a voucher for an Uber/Lyft, they usually DETAILED the vehicle, inside and outside, it was really in excess of what was needed (did I...
FYI, printing the smaller version uses 326.43grams of filament, that is about 1/3 of a spool.
Here is mine printing.. printed the main piece vertically.
you know, opinions are like a-holes, everyone has one, and they all stink :)
There are still tens of thousands of Model S's on the road, Tesla will not be developing anything new for them, but they will continue to support them, until there all in the scrap yard. They have not announced end of...
time will tell, won't it? most of the orignal signature edition Model S's where heavily driven, and have been scraped by now with ultra high mileage. I had an orignal 2013 Model S, but it wasn't a signature edition, I recently traded it in for a 2025 Cybertruck. This is a much improved...
discontinued, yes.
changed the entire path of transportation, for the world, check.
destined to become a collectors vehicle, for museums when the history books of electrification are written. it will sell for milliions within 10-20 years, just watch. Has happened with other classic, low...
It is currently printing in Grey PETG (what I happened to have handy)
I did find the magnets in quantity 8, in stainless steel (or black, your choice)

The 5 X 20 mirrors as well, in stock at Amazon...
Can be "SuperCharging", that is DC charging. AC charging uses the same circuitry as powering the AC outlets, so no, unless they add another converter, and that is not likely, because, as Elon has said many times, "the best part is, no part" :-)
I am interested as well, I own a Bambu X1 Carbon, will check if it is large enough to print it as well
Thanks
Mitch
Yep, too big for my puny printer :) will try the smaller version temporarily
note: might be able to print it vertically, don't know yet, as the smaller version is currently printing
Well, I received an invitation to drop $160K with Tesla :-)
Still working to pay off the $80K Cybertruck, over the 60 month zero interest loan.
I was an early adopter with a low VIN on a 2013 Model S (took delivery Jan 17, 2013), but it was not a Signature edition, just the normal $89,500...
yes, for normal people, the latest Tesla is always the better choice.
However, their are those super well off collectors, and this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to buy a brand new signature edition Model S/Model X, which was only offered when they were first released, and, preserve it in...
I believe it, this Signature Edition will be bought by wealthy people, and placed in their collections, probably not driven much, because someday, it will be worth millions, as many rare/limited editions become more valuable over time.
Story on it with more details...
To quote Elon: "the best part is, no part" :-) looks like they are saving $10 per copy, and with the hundredths of thousands produced yearly, that's a whole lotta cabbage :)
I am older, took advantage of the last time the stock was down in the $160ish area, and moved as many shares as I could (keeping in my same tax bracket), from my IRA to my ROTH, so now the growth AND withdrawal is tax free... Yes, I did have to pay the tax on the transfered shares, but it was...
