Sorry that car (and harness) is long gone.

This was a project/thread from 5-6 years ago. I DID complete it, built a harness with all the mating plugs so no splicing, and ran it for years through a helix DSP/amp. But that was a couple cars, dozens of projects, and too long ago for me to remember the details!

Yeah, I have a Honda Ridgeline that has ANC as well, its primary purpose seems to be to counteract the odd 3 cylinder thump that happens when the 6 cylinder does cylinder deactivation. Its pretty transparent in use. Sounds like a similar implementation to your Jeep.

Ah, ok. Sounds like they very well might calibrate it differently depending on if there are rear passengers. I havent played with the setting while people are in the back yet. Will have to look at that next time someone is back there.

Ive only had ANC for one day! Haha. So no, I dont have a feel for it at all, just that toggling it on and off all day as I drove around I did notice it, but it was subtle....and I was looking for it. Thats a big reason why I measured it, need to rule out placebo when an effect is based...

My car's software finally updated last night and I see I got the ANR feature....as a sound guy I had to look into this further. Took a drive and listened. It can be hard to hear if you dont know what to look for, plus it REALLY depends on the road surface. It is the low frequency tire rumble...

I sold mine on Tred.com a couple months ago, pretty effective and painless for me at least.

Same happened to me. Don't know when or where the rodents got to it but I had a couple of woodsy trips prior so I think perhaps one of those times. The car normally lives in my garage and the weather here is pretty temperate so I didn't notice the symptoms (no heat/AC) for an indefinite...

Well said, nuance is important. Businesses everywhere are having to figure out where the line is between staying in/going out of business, protecting employees health, keeping people employed (or not), etc...and its not easy. A lot of difficult decisions being made this week.

Im using a Helix DSP and I have the front 3 sets of channels summed to give me all of the audio that it should have. As I recall (its been years since I did this so I may be mis-remembering) at first I only was only using one set of channels (might have been the rear door channels?) and still...

The car has a regular 12V system so power connections for aftermarket audio is not a problem. If you are just adding a sub/amp its standard car audio stuff. Things only get a little tricky if you go full replacement.....its necessary to get a full range signal from the factory head unit that...

Yeah, interesting. Looks like there may be more than one possible cause of the yellowing. For those of us who had the speculated "incomplete adhesive curing" the UV light seems to be an effective solution. But if the cause is something akin to "weather exposure" degradation (or a lack of...

yes, the way my box was set up the screen directly under the light is getting exposed at a 90 degree angle. While the screen towards the edge of the box I used as a shield would be exposed at about a 45 degree angle. I though there might be some trouble from this (with the 45 degree portions...

Probably around 4-6 hours per area of the screen, I was experimenting so I did not just set it and leave it, I ran it for a couple hours, checked on it, moved it to the other part of the screen, a couple hours, found it was working but not complete. Came back the next day and did it some more...

Before: After Total success. Used the light suggested in the original post. Had a 7” x 9” wide box laying around (screen is 9" wide), cut a hole in the back for the light to shine through and taped the light to the back with packing tape. Originally I had the light inside the box but...

radar detector power wire.

Yeah, I have both and without spending a good amount of time with each I think you as a new owner would have difficulty differentiating between the two based on how they drive. RIGHT NOW I would even say that AP1 is more solid. I just drove the AP2 car on a 500 mile trip and realized about 400...

I just got the retrofit done a few days ago on my early build car, its a nice difference. Before it was noticeably stiff, most bumps were uncomfortable, especially in the back seat. Freeway expansion joints bounced the car, I would cringe over bigger bumps. After a couple hundred miles on the...

Yep, black plastic, painted.

Something else to consider....at least for now....Most of the people who currently own and are driving 3s also have a Model S. But unless you have a 100D the Model 3 has superior range. For this reason I have already used my 3 instead of my S for 3 road trips in the last couple months. I was...

Yeah, I was getting a lot of "loading errors" on my Model S, and the same USB would not even play on the Model 3. Converted everything into high bitrate MP3 and its all good now in both cars.

now that phone app for the door locks on the other hand......haha, just kidding, lets not start another thread about that....

Agreed, we have had our 3 for a couple months and similar to my S, after a few days of fiddling with everything in the menus everything is set where it needs to be and/or is automatic and we no longer really use any controls that are not already at hand. Its kind of a non issue to us. And by...

You can now, it was added in the last firmware update.

I think so, I adjusted the latch up a bit and adjusted the stoppers to get good alignment along the front edge, closes much easier now.

well....I just went out to look at the part number on my cars shocks....VIN 19XX..... 1044461-02-B 1044364-01-D interesting result, is the letter at the end just a batch number/production date designation or is it an actual change?....I guess that is the quesion. Will be interesting to see...

I agree that the fan often sounds like its working harder than needed compared to some other cars (and my S) and is of course more obvious since its the ONLY noise when sitting still. I find that its much higher if the rear seat vents are on so I'll turn them off until summer when they are...

Yeah, Ive charged my 3 with my older cord from my S, and charged my S with my newer 3 cord. You have something wrong there, its definitely not "just how it is"

Yeah, I did not note what firmware I was on before 50.12 but I know we skipped a couple versions so I suppose the scroll wheel thing could have showed up at some earlier point. I had messed around with the right side scroll wheel when we got the car to discover it did nothing...and now it does...

I had not noticed this until now so I think it’s new.....Pressing the right side scroll wheel activated voice commands.

Its higher up on this page.

Interesting.....measures about the same. As I said somewhere else on this forum, its not so much that one is louder than the other, its more like they sound different....how people might perceive that difference might vary I suspect.

The drop off at the upper end is a little too much and there is too much energy at around 125hz, BUT that actually looks pretty good for a stock audio system frequency response, explains why it sounds pretty good with everything set to default. Need to see that sweep with 1/3 octave smoothing to...

Strange cpa.....I saw over 110kw at the Fresno charger on our 3 when we were coming home from Fremont a couple weeks ago. (1 other car there). We only charged for 5-10 minutes as I was just looking for a little cushion to get home.

I have both a 3 and a S. I'm 6' tall... the 3 is easier for sure. My S takes a good bit more contortions to get into. I took a tape measure to the 3 the first night we got home because the differences in door opening dimensions were noticeable. The smaller dash, smaller steering wheel...

german sport sedan firm....rides similar to my BMW E92 335 coupe (with "sport" suspension) I had a few years ago. My current model S ride is a little less busy. The guys you see around here calling it harsh....I'm not sure they have driven a car with a harsh ride. Its firm for sure but not...

Ah, very good. The only issue of any substance I have had with the current state of the 3.

scheduled charging is the main thing I'm waiting for.....is that in this update?

Whether a TOU plan works for you or not depends on a lot of factors and since everyone's usage patterns are different.......gotta do the math.... For those of you in central or northern California check out the PG&E Toolkit app, you sign in and it pulls all your usage data from PG&E and can...

Yeah, looks good. I DO like the way the stock gloss black looks but Im pretty sure it will scratch just from looking at it.....so a wrap in something that is specifically made to be scratch resistant is a good idea....and if it does get beat up, simple enough to get it rewrapped.

Yeah, from the rate schedule you posted you should be doing your math at $0.23/kWh. Charge overnight when the rate is at its lowest. I have a EV-TOU rate coupled with a solar system and its VERY beneficial in my case.....make power during the day when the rates are high generating credit that...

Yeah, same here, configured on Christmas eve, contacted by Tesla on Dec 30, car was ready to be picked up on Jan 5th (although we were out of town and could not pick up until the 8th). Also VIN 19XX. Snooping around the trunk I found a sticker with Dec.12 handwritten on it in sharpie...

can you take some close up of the edges? I'm interested in how they handled wrapping around the edges of the various parts and the cupholders? Fingerprints drive me insane so I'm liking the look of this, but a couple of questionably finished edges might bother me more than fingerprints!

The 3 is very good.....stylistically not really in the same neighborhood as the S (I LOVE the way my S looks but the 3 is...nice?...cute?...competent?...) but from the drivers seat who cares. The 3 drives better in most ways, super precise and nimble, and the interior fit,finish, materials, and...

Ive put a few hundred miles on our 3.....and it took zero adaptation to look at the speedo, its RIGHT THERE when you are driving, pretty high and close in your field of vision as well. Far more of an adaptation is looking at numbers if you are used to looking at traditional gauges, or vice...

I have alcantara in my 3 and my S....woven fabric in my previous BMWs and Audis similar to the tesla fabric....pros and cons to both but ultimately..... Do not care. This conversation however, all this hyperbole, its making me nuts,

Napa has them an some locations (Wix manufactures most of Naps's filters), Napa's part number is 230176. The price you get will depend on how friendly your local Napa store is, but expect around $25 plus or minus and if they dont have it at your local store they can bring one in from a...

oh yeah.....my traveling stress level just went WAY down....

Yeah, PM sent.... Since you summed the front and rear channels in your DSP.....the parking sensor, starting "bings" and various other noises that come through the stereo, those are mixed in well enough?

Yeah, sounds right, I went out an stuck my phone next to each speaker with an RTA app running and it confirms that......looks like the fronts are running from roughly 200hz on down and the rears are running 200hz on up. Did you just sum the front and rear woofer channels or did you get the mids...
