Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

Is Shanghai Highland hairpin or winding?

Edit:
Found answer in the VIN decoder here: Model Year 2022 Refresh M3/MY

8th letter of you VIN is:
S- Single motor Hairpin
K-Dual motor Hairpin
J-Dual Motor Hairpin performance version

So Highland LR and SR is hairpin with new Inverter.

Wondering if RHD is as simple as swapping the L and R LHD front mats around asking for a friend

No, here are the RHD ones for the highland. As you can see they are clearly different

If you swap it will exactly feel like "Oh Baby I swapped my thongs..."

That’s what I’d do if I was a seller on AliExpress

Not only that, the foot rest is now on the outside

Turn them upside down and rotate 180deg

Highland LR is hairpin.

Some one with SR VIN can confirm if that is also hairpin.

My 8th letter is S

I think they fit but are not 100% perfect.. maybe tiny nuances.. otherwise, why would they separate in the US Tesla accessories store 2017-2023 Model 3 and 2024 Model 3 mats.

I'm waiting for them to hopefully release 2024 M3 RHD OEM mats very soon in the AU Tesla store.

The old model 3 mats I had were the same, almost fitted but not 100%, if you’re cool with that then that’s fair enough but my OCD didn’t let me go with mine

If my car was on a ship, I’d have a VIN right? Or can they be assigned also once unloaded?

It can be a bit random

Reply to my email. I asked them if the vehicle was offloaded from Beluga ACE and in Sydney at least but seems like I got a copy paste [Ctrl+C and then Ctrl+V].

Pretty much word for word on the phone today.
I pushed pretty hard for some sort of compensation (supercharger miles/credit for accessories, FSD trial, etc) but got nowhere.
Just the offer to get a full refund is available.

Honestly mulling it over right now. Just to make a point.

Considering the state of the global car market overall was not feeling any vibes of such sort. So decided to keep it calm by accepting the reality and play the wait game.

I didn’t make a decision yet. But the lead times won’t be too bad once everything shakes out I’d bet.
Plus maybe performance coming soon ish now. AND I’d imagine the referral process comes back in 4-6 months.
I’m pissed that they’ve had my money for two weeks and can’t tell me when this will be resolved. I was told after two weeks on the phone, but might have been a slip of tongue.
It’s not a great experience, I’d like to think they’d want to gain some favour with customers after their f up.

Per this post on Facebook.

AU manual has now been altered. Good sign I'd say.
