    Tesla Model S 2018 aftermarket base audio speaker upgrade

    Yes, the Infinitys in the door produced more bass than stock. Amp powers subwoofer and rear-hatch speakers (with a mid-range crossofer). The amp uses two power sources, one switched, the other unswitched. The switched power comes from the fuse box in the passenger kick panel. I used a...

    Tesla Model S 2018 aftermarket base audio speaker upgrade

    I did a cheap upgrade as well by swapping stock front door speakers with Infinity PR6512IS which are also 2.7ohm. Modifying the stock speaker mounts was easy although intimidating destroying the factory speakers and keeping the plastic base. In addition, I tapped off the front speaker wires...

    Adding a hitch for a bike rack to a Model S

    I have one of the "non removable" hitches on my 2016 S. I don't remember the brand. It does bottom-out once in a while, mainly backing our of a steep driveway. I mostly use it for a bike rack but I have pulled a small sailboat with it with no issues. Parking radar goes nuts when bikes are...

    Vampire Drain - 2% in 8 hours

    FYI - my car is MCU v1. I turned off Sentry and cabin overheat and it appears to make a "small" difference. Maybe Sentry needs to have GPS on to know if it is "at home" to turn off monitoring of cameras and Cabin Overheat needs temperature readings to know when to activate. Next step is to...

    Vampire Drain - 2% in 8 hours

    I have a 2016.5 60D. I am noticing a 2% drain in 8 hours while sitting in my driveway. This may have been going on for a while, I just started tracking it. BTW, I am not checking the status with the app during this time. I changed out the 12v battery because I do not know how long it has...

    Late 2016 / Early 2017 S Owners: How Are Your Daytime Running Lights Holding Up?

    I decided to go ahead and order replacement lights from ebay seller parts-link. I have to say, I am impressed as there are brand new. The ones I ordered were marketed as "damaged". I found one broken mount on each light, the rest was 100% perfect. No version label on the headlights. I did...

    Install speakers to trunk liftgate on standard system?

    I had already put an amp under the floor for a subwoofer. I ran speaker-level wires from the front door speakers to the right-rear quarter panel. I added a speaker-level to line-level adapter before the amp. From the amp I connected the subwoofer and two speakers in the liftgate. I did not...

    software limited 60 kW update to 75 kW ?

    Got the same quote from Tesla, also stated the upgrade was to increasing my car to a 75D Performance. I assume that is the "uncorking" included.
