    My Experience with Upgrading the Sound System in my 2014 P85

    I recently had Reus install a sound system in my Model S and I was very impressed with the sound.I would recommend them to anyone looking for a sound upgrade.I think the issue with some of the 60s and 70s sounds is not so much a problem of the playback system and really an issue with the source...

    We are everywhere

    I see at least one Model S almost every day in the West Palm Beach area but for some reason this area had at least a dozen of the really early adopters.I've also seen a few in my travels to Juneau, Alaska and Hong Kong.

    Lighted Tesla T for nosecone

    It's Alive!!! I had Rick's Lighted T installed on my S today.The T is not very noticeable until the lights are turned on.The light behind the T is bright enough even with the resistor hooked up.The Oracle programmer works well also (I was worried about that before the installation).I'm still...

    I'm not sure what you mean about integrated.If you want something that will control the car,i.e. brake automatically or correct steering then the Mobileye isn't for you.It works great with the stated intent of warning you of hazards like veering out of your lane,etc.The warning from lane veering...

    My Modifications / Cameras

    Yes, there are small indentations in the hard rubber bumper.Very irritating and the reason I got the cameras.The cameras in the car are pretty well hidden by the rear view mirror and don't bother me.The dual input dash cam/ front camera display is made by Boyovision by Vision Tech.I think the...

    First, the nose cone is intact.No rhinoplasty..just a carbon fiber vinyl wrap...Here are some photos...Look hard and you can see the front curb camera in the mesh below the "T". The curb camera screen inside flips down to reveal the screen.There is an on/off switch for the curb camera on the...

    Lighted Tesla T for nosecone

    I just had a front camera installed in my S and had the installer pull an extra wire to the nose cone just in case you got the lighted T in some kind of production. Your lighted T is too cool.

    no more chrome

    The job cost about 750 bucks for the nose cone and chrome wrap.I don't think the materials are that expensive but wrapping the trim is very labor intensive.I watched them at work and they were very careful and doing the job right just takes time.These guys wrap...

    Audio: Sound System Quality?

    ElSupreme thanks for the information in your posts..Garbage in Garbage out is one of the oldest axioms.It doesn't matter how good your playback system is if your source material stinks.I'm sure Dr T's audio system will be excellent but it won't satisfy him without the commensurate excellent...

    Dr Taras' Model S gets customized!

    I'm really anxious to see how your sound system turns out.I've used Focal speakers in my cars in the past and I've been very happy with their product.I ordered the upgraded Tesla sound system because I was told I wouldn't be able to put my own system in the Model S.The Tesla sound upgrade is...

    Car Care: @#)$(*!% Curb rash...

    Tesla Dania Beach charged me 25 dollars a wheel to install the Alloy Gators.Mine was the first Alloy Gator installation they had done so I think the price was picked by them at the spur of the moment.I wouldn't be surprised if the price to install could vary from service center but a precedent...

    Suggested Tesla Supercharger locations in Florida

    I spent yesterday morning at the Dania Beach store/service center getting my new 21 inch wheels and asked about new supercharger stations.The only feedback I got was that Orlando was a certainty for a supercharger station.No guess as to time frame.

    Tesla Supercharger network

    I live in the eastern corridor from Miami to Boston so I'm biased but I think Tesla will have to establish a larger supercharger network in that corridor in the next six months to a year and not 3 years from now.The population density is so great in this corridor that it can't be ignored.Of...

    Tesla Supercharger network

    Supercharger Network Well, as the NYT article demonstrates, the availabilty of charging stations is a crucial part of the viability of the electric car.I'm sure everyone driving a Model S gets the same questions I do from people looking at their Tesla.How far can you go on a charge? I...
