    Hawaii Safety Check Sticker Placement

    There is a Law for the 3 now too. I've bought it, just haven't installed it yet. Our 3 was the first one that Peter (Jun's Tinting) did for the Xpel wrap (front end only). It's gorgeous looking (pics on his IG feed). Peter's still working on getting my tint done - needed to order a larger...

    Hawaii Model 3

    sorry been off the forum for a bit. It was about 2-3 wks from configuration to delivery of the first, the second took another 2 more weeks or so. Very fast! Excited to see more of us getting 3s!!

    Licensed Honolulu Electrician for Installation of Charging Outlet

    Yeah the advantage of the HPWC is that it’s hardwired instead of using a plug (so no worries about the plug coming off or potential resistance because of poor contacts). But it’s the same 240V breaker in your panel. The HPWC also has a thicker cord (sturdier) than the mobile unit and the cord...

    Licensed Honolulu Electrician for Installation of Charging Outlet

    Dunno if this helps at all but putting in the HPWC doesn’t appear to be particularly difficult or complicated from watching our contractor’s electrician put in ours. I would think that any reasonably experienced electrician should be able to do it. The tricky part is making sure that the DIP...

    Thanks all! It’s a gorgeous car - will have more impressions after we get the car this weekend (my dad is driving it around for now). odub - we have another M3 delivery that’s probably coming up in 2-3 wks (car loaded on boat coming to HI), ‘we’ll keep people notified about the next one too...

    There are two reservations - one configured with silver with aero wheels and the other with midnight silver with 19 inch sport wheels. Got a call from the delivery specialist (haven't had a chance to call back yet) - wish they would just email (as stated in communication preferences for Tesla)...

    Hawaii - Rim Repair

    Gashed my R rear wheel pretty severely the other day when we were having that rain deluge and I couldn't see the edge of a curb while making a right turn. Was pretty bummed and decided to spend the money to get the wheel nice again. Did some research online and decided to go with ProDent...

    Hawaii Charging Stations/Parking

    Dunno - there's a lot of poorly utilized hidden parking areas now in Ala Moana like that half level by Bloomingdales or the unused old Nordstrom parking structure - might be worth it to management to have Tesla owners use less commonly used stalls for SCing to free up space in more high traffic...

    Who can do a windshield Model X Tint

    I haven't been looking for one but asked Peter from Jun's Tinting off hand as to whether it might even be possible and he said that it would be very difficult and he think that it might be possible to get the film up to the point where the inherent tint of the glass starts. Haven't really felt...

    AMAZING Service Experience (anyone else?)

    Our service center here in Hawaii (Oahu) has been amazing in terms of responsiveness and ability to get appointments. And we have a pretty high density of Teslas here too.

    To Wrap or not wrap your Model X

    I have full wrap and have not seen any issues (outside of the typical FWD issues) in terms of the wrap itself affecting the door sensors. They seem to stop appropriately.

    Tint recommendations in Hawaii

    Over the course of years, I've had a number of vendors install different tints on my various cars. I've worked with TNT, Al's Tinting, ProTint, and Jun's. I've actually had good experiences with all of them and wouldn't hesitate to go back to any of them (the tint itself has held up well from...

    Hawaii - Firmware 8.0

    I guess they finally started rolling out 8.0 to the X owners. Got the notification last night and installed. Still playing with it today - UI definitely is cleaner. Haven't played with autopilot yet today so don't know about how those changes are working.

    Hawaii: How many EV owners pay to charge or charge for free?

    1 most of the time but during the winterr months when the PV can't keep up with the electricity usage and I've exhausted my PV credits, there's a month or two where I'll pay for extra electricity.

    Hawaii Model X

    Gorgeous car! Sorry to hear about the FWD issue. There were a number of small things wrong with my X initially but after a number of trips back, the vast majority of the punch list is resolved and some we'll just have to wait for Tesla to come up with a fix. But overall, still love my car!

    Paint protection film and badging

    I had my installer debadge the Model X and the 90D emblems from my car. Think it looks cleaner without the badging and less places for road grime to accumulate. The Xpel is cut out around the T in the middle - luckily not too much issue so far with any grime accumulating there (but I have...
