Screen Protector

Ordered!

By the way, I also ordered the trim tools but the product description for those only lists the Rivian.

Thanks, and fixed!

AO matte screen protector FTW!!

Have them on our 2020 MYLRs. Still look new 4+ years later.

Perfect fit in the CT. The quality is unmatched. While waiting for AO’s CT protector, had some from Amazon. The difference between the Amazon and AO is huge.

Much better fit, much better responsiveness, and the feel is fantastic.

Offense taken! j/k, but to be clear (and of course I'm bias), the Spigen protector is made of inferior soda-lime glass (aka 'regular glass'), does not have a lifetime warranty and does not have an ionic anti-bacterial coating. They do a great job in terms of marketing and ease of install, but quality-wise their protector is no different than a $20 special on Amazon. Our protector is more expensive due to the raw material cost being 4.5x the cost of soda-lime glass, but I'm confident it's the best option available.

Today I took off the factory screen protectors on my 1-week old CT. I tried the Spigen on the front and back, because I had good experience with Spigen on the Model Y. The back is OK, but I had to take the front off immediately. In the shade at home it's was fine, but out on the road -- in sunlight -- the glare made it unusable. Sent it back to Amazon.

Now I can see fingerprints all over the place, where the factory "temporary" screen protector hid them to some degree.

How does your screen protector fare against glare and fingerprints? The picture on your website appears that the screen protector introduces a haze, when compared to the raw display underneath.

Depends if it's matte or HD clear; the latter does nothing for glare (reflections), but is virtually invisible when installed, and fingerprint clean up should be much easier (it resists more than the factory finish, but if someone goes at it with Cheeto-fingers, it's not magic, but the clean up is much easier).

Matte is our top-selling option, typically 60:40; it kills all specular glare and all but the most egregious of fingerprints (still oleophobic, so easy clean up), but the downside for some is the loss of the pin-sharp clarity of the factory screen, and if the sun hits in at a certain angle, then it can wash out the screen momentarily until the angle changes. Typically it's more of a thing this time of year, when the sun is lower. Personally, we've always rocked the matte protectors in all of our Tesla's, and love the general feel of the matte when interacting with the screen, but it is a personal choice.
