    Hansshow vs Tesla Offer Power Frunk/Trunk - which one to buy?

    I I have the EVOffer Mark 3.0 kit with the correct firmware related to the gateway config changes. And have done the gateway config. And everything was working perfectly like OEM retrofit. This is not a big deal, as i can close from watch. And hopefully it will be possible again like the frunk...

    Hansshow vs Tesla Offer Power Frunk/Trunk - which one to buy?

    One thing worth mentioning is that I installed 2024.14.6 yesterday and have the latest iOS app 4.33.0 on my phone. After the 2024.16.4 update I am not able to close the trunk from my phone. It works fine with my Apple Watch Ultra and Watch app for Tesla app. And also from car screen etc. Just...

    Hansshow vs Tesla Offer Power Frunk/Trunk - which one to buy?

    Replacing the kit is far easier than fitting it from scratch. Just make sure you’re not working against a time line. The trick is to remove both ends of the rubber tube from the chassis and to undo the two strips holding it in place. Don’t cut them, they can be opened and reused. When you pull...

    New headlights retrofit

    Interesting about the virtual pitch sensor: If the vehicle is equipped with a Virtual Pitch Sensor (VPS), in Toolbox 3, click the Actionstab, search for “PROC_ICE_X_SET-VIRTUAL-PITCH-SENSOR”, and then click Change leveling system of Virtual Pitch Sensor. Wonder how we can identify this on our...

    Pedestrian Warning System (PWS) Retrofit

    Thanks for the info guys. Yes, I agree it’s not a warranty fault as it’s new OTA upgrades taking advantage of already existing HW. I was just thinking it could be a free upgrade before warranty ends 😊 It hasn’t bothered me until I read about it here😄 Don’t think I will bother with the fix. I’ll...

    Pedestrian Warning System (PWS) Retrofit

    Are the new replacement cameras chrome like the originals. Or black like the cameras on newer models? Any good tips on arguments for getting them replaced on warranty? My car warranty ends in June this year. I might try to get them replaced if I’m lucky. Otherwise I’ll just keep them as they are.

    New headlights retrofit

    I successfully upgraded my 2019 model3 with the new Global Matrix lights today thanks to all the great information shared here. So thank you all for sharing. Just follow the guide @Adam3 posted in #691. I needed to install Toolbox proxy application like @terranx mentioned to be able to perform...

    New headlights retrofit

    I’ve received my global lights, and plan to do the install during the week, or over the weekend. I have previously used Toolbox to config power liftgate retrofit. But I have no experience with using the service shell. I’m planning for a one hour Toolbox subscription. So I’m trying to be as...

    Retrofit to matrix (global) headlights?

    I think you will find a detailed guide here https://service.tesla.com/en-US/ Somewhere they have guides for manual against wall guide, and another one for professionals with tools. At least for Model3, just noticed this is a model X tread😊

    Hansshow vs Tesla Offer Power Frunk/Trunk - which one to buy?

    I noticed these alerts recently when I was in service mode during my Toolbox config a couple of weeks ago. Thanks for sharing. I will revert back to original connections based on this info. Did EVOffer explain why this was needed prior to the Toolbox config changes?

    Hansshow vs Tesla Offer Power Frunk/Trunk - which one to buy?

    I have the EVOffer Mark 3.0 kit. And performed the retrofit config on my car recently. I haven’t noticed any changes to my cars sleeping pattern after the config. It’s so long ago, that I don’t remember if installing the kit itself made any changes to my cars sleeping pattern in the first place...

    Hansshow vs Tesla Offer Power Frunk/Trunk - which one to buy?

    Hi some useful links I used for general Toolbox info: You want to navigate to Dashboard, infotainment dashboard , vehicle information. Find powerliftgatetype and change, then apply changes.

    Hansshow vs Tesla Offer Power Frunk/Trunk - which one to buy?

    I reverted back to the original gas struts. Pulling thru some wires while removing the powered struts to make it easier to remount the power struts after the recall. Removed the kit cables routed to trunk lid. Removed the open/close button at the lid. Blocked the hole with a rubber grommet. Left...

    Hansshow vs Tesla Offer Power Frunk/Trunk - which one to buy?

    Yes, I can open and close from two different places in the Tesla App and on the screen in the car. Added a few before and after images. I can also open and close the frunk from all the same places as I have the EVOffer Frunk kit. The close function from the app disappeared some time ago. But...
