Right, I usually drive like that myself and just look at what vehicles does it show to my sides and to the read, but it kind of implies that I have to rely on the vehicle properly sensing its surroundings. I’m not totally comfortable with that yet. The system still misinterprets small trailers with semies and sometime flickers a vehicle in and out of the view. So, theoretically, and maybe one day actually, it will work, but It ain’t today for sure.
I’ve removed mine and don’t regret it at all. It opens up your view a lot. I planned on keeping the rear view up to see back seat passengers but that perspective was too close and overall clunky.
That's important. It has to become instinctive to look at the display. Also, restrict who can drive your CT. Most people are used to driving with mirrors.
The only way I'll be comfortable removing the side mirrors (I haven't done so yet, I fold them in to make them unusable while training), is to display the rear and side camera displays all the time. It covers the map, unfortunately, but the next turn instruction is still visible on the left side along with other information. I don't like having to activate a turn signal to see a side camera view and at the same time lose the rear view camera display. When starting out on a drive, I press the camera icon on the screen which brings up the front and side camera displays, so I need to swipe up to display the rear view. After that the rear view is displayed when toggling the camera icon to view the map. Unfortunately, the camera button on the steering wheel doesn't toggle between views of the map and the three camera views. This all takes some getting used to.
For me, it’s worth the fix it ticket to have the sleek look. I also haven’t had a front plate since 2016 in Colorado and never been cited for it….and I have been pulled over twice since then for speeding which resulted in two warnings. This “threat” of not being compliant with the law when Tesla clearly gives you a better alternative to side mirrors just due to bureaucratic BS, is not enough to keep me from installing these.
Any desire to sell the the mirrors? Messed my drivers side up hitting a building the other day
You do the mirror delete? Any desire to sell them? Hit a building the other day and wrecked my drivers side mirror housing
Sorry we need to keep for if/when she’s gets sold down the road… get our mirror deletes, will be cheaper than replacing!
Is there any timing for rev 2.0? I want to buy these but want to wait for the new version as I'm sure you guys have learned quite a bit since they launched in April/May.
Is there a timeline for rev 2.0 to be released?
It looks great. I installed PPF right before putting these on, and it also kept the SS and aluminum from touching. You might want to get a couple of small pieces of PPF and install it under them. That should be enough to prevent corrosion.Billet Aluminum Mirror Delete Kit - https://cybertruckco.com/product/cybertruckco-billet-aluminum-mirror-delete-kit/
Finally arrived today and installed, looks badass! Took 15min to remove mirrors and install.
Pros: sleeker look, like the concept, better side visibility across the A piller. I like the detail lines on them, match the locking caps.
Cons: takes a second to look at the center screen when using turn signals for the camera. Although if you glance at the side and somebody there the red warning light comes on.
I know other customers shipped today as well.
what do you guys think?
