Pet Safe Door Locking Tabs!!

[Wolfgram]

A new Cybertruck friend we made in Seattle 3D printed these cool tabs which keep pets from accidentally opening the doors while in Pet Mode.

while Pet Mode does disable the window switches, the door open button remains active (because you wouldn’t want to trap a person inside the vehicle!). However, a dog paw or cat jump cab (and often does!) hit the door open button.

These brilliant little tabs slip under the door trim to stay in place and are thick enough to keep paws from pushing the button on the other side.

Thanks to Scott for making these to keep our fur babies safe on long road trips!

I tried to post a video but it’s not working. My CT is in service for a rear motor inverter replacement but when I get it back I’ll post a photo. Sorry! ??‍

oh, here’s a still photo from the video. ?

Ah I see. Just basing from the photos since it looks like a rear door.

Yeah… our cats can open the front doors EVERY time we stop with them in Dog Mode. We discovered there is also an alert that basically does an impressive light show when the door button gets pushed while in Dog Mode. ?

Are they selling these. Might work for my kids in the back seat trying to open the windows.

I hope these will help all the doggo owners in securing their fur babies from escaping.

You can learn things when you read

Child Locks
Cybertruck has child locks on the rear doors to prevent them from being opened using the interior door open buttons. On the touchscreen, touch Controls > Locks > Child Lock. You can choose Both to engage the child lock on both rear doors, or you can choose Left or Right to engage it on just a specific door.
Warning
Tesla recommends turning on child locks whenever a child is seated in a rear seat.

I think these were meant for the front which do not have child locks

The owners manual will help with that as well...

To disable the rear window switches, touch Controls > Locks > Window Lock. Once locked, the rear windows can only be controlled from the driver's window switch. Touch Window Lock again to re-enable the rear window switches.

Couldn't you taper the edge to follow the shape of the door panel? Looks like it would easily snag.
