Preventing dirt from Cybertruck charging port?

[HCJefe]

I have a Cyberbeast and I live about 45 minutes into the forest all dirt roads. The issue is that dirt fills the charging port. Is there a cap or something clever to prevent dirt from getting into there? I used an air gun and blew it clean but a better solution is preferable. Ideas?

Probably best to fashion a low profile gasket that attaches on the underside of the door. Keep the size as small as you can.

Gotta use common sense, but it's no problem to mist water over the port and gently blow air to diffuse it after you get most of it with a microfiber towel. Have to be smart and not blow hard air into the pins though.

So I’m thinking this might work with a little cutting: https://a.co/d/8CSWK7Y

Yes, cover closed. Fills up with dirt.

May have pretty good luck with something like that

Maybe you could shape one with clay that dries and hardens and would be easy to remove.

I'm wondering if anyone has prototyped a gasket yet ?. We could crowd source it on the forum here, I bet.
