    Vendor FACTORY DIRECT - Alpharex PRO-Series LED Tail Lights - Tesla Model 3 & Model Y

    Completely agree on point C, but I think this is a Tesla wiring problem and would be difficult for anyone to solve.

    Vendor Show Off Your Aftermarket Model Y Wheels

    I'm lowered on MPP Coilovers. I would say I'm about 1/2 inch lower than MYP stock height.

    In a Tribute to Unsprung Weight

    Wish I weighed these TE's when I got them. But mounted same day since I waited so long for them and was too excited. They're 19x9.5 +34.

    MountainPass Performance Comfort Coilovers

    Agreed with everything @Pianewman says. I have the same experience where low speed harshness didn't improve much going over construction plates, manholes, and rail road tracks. Highspeed highway improvement is a lot more noticeable, though. Even though I'm on 19's the higher PSI requirement for...

    MountainPass Performance Comfort Coilovers

    Correct that front cambers are not adjustable. The lower you go the more out of spec it'll be. I only have MPP Rear Camber arms so I'm within spec for the rears. Will have to just eat the wear on the fronts. My fronts are at -1.6 degrees, dropped at MPP recommended height so your results are...

    Ordered MY LR but wanting MYP

    I don't think there's anything to suggest here, it sounds like you should go for the MYP or else you will never enjoy your MY. Every response you made so far defends on why you should go MYP. Make the switch.

    MountainPass Performance Comfort Coilovers

    Because different wheel size yields different measurements. To find the exact center of the hub, measure the diameter of your wheel (lip to lip) and divide by two. Then measure from the bottom lip of the wheel to the fender, and subtract that number to actually get hub to fender. EDIT: Exactly...

    Wall Charger Electrician Recommendation (SoCal, Riverside County)?

    My Wall Connector was not the most straight forward install as the panel and garage were on the opposite side of the house. I also wanted a permit due to the electrical wires running across my house. Steve Cavenee Electric (Steve Cavenee Electric - Orange, CA - CA) came out to be the cheapest...

    Blind spot, close calls - do I need camera adjusted?

    Don’t get the Turn Signal option if you don’t plan on spending hours tapping into a power source. It requires a lot of work to get it working. In other words, not plug and play. Other than that, the Suma convex mirrors replacement with defroster are entirely plug and play and pretty easy to...

    Y Performace vs LR?

    It seems like this entire thread was all about why and how the individual came to their conclusion of choice, but your comment is one of the few (if not first) that points finger at another person for their choice. Why?

    Y Performace vs LR?

    I will provide my experience, and you can take it for what it is. I also had an order for MYP in the beginning. After about a week, I cancelled and reorder for MYLR. Here were my reasons: I live in an urban area. Going that fast between traffic light is stupid in my opinion. The only time I'll...

    Vendor Carbon Fiber Steering Wheels

    I don't understand something; pre-order now and you ship late May, but there are no pictures that are specific to the vehicle. We're expected to pay $950 for a product we don't know we're getting, and it could end up being just like any other aftermarket steering wheel that are already...

    Noise reduction kits worthwhiled?

    I will tell you that this kit on a 2021 MY did not make a difference, at least to me. Felt like I wasted a lot of time installing this for not many gains. These kits are just out to make money. They do not reduce (noticeable) noise. However, the only thing they reduced was water getting into...

    Easiest way to tell a Y from a 3 if they are not next to each other?

    This is a wonderful annotation but you're missing the most prominent differences; and that is the black hitch trim at the bottom. That's the easiest way to tell both from the rear. To tell the apart from the sides, Model Y has black trim around the fenders and black trim side skirt. The front...

    New Model Y Tail lights?

    It mimics your action. I don't know where you heard that from, but the avatar is not synced up to each bulb. Also you'll see that the avatar has the old style tail lights and doesn't display outer tail light braking as it does on the physical tail lights.

    What do you do if your Tesla is stolen?

    +1 to this. I'm not sure why it's any different in a Tesla. In general if your car is stolen simply do what you would do for any car.

    MountainPass Performance Comfort Coilovers

    Yea I’m not going any lower than this. I’ve had lowered cars before and am very familiar with the height of some speed bumps in my area to go that low again.

    MountainPass Performance Comfort Coilovers

    So I’ve driven over 300 miles on these. Here are my experience: Height is on recommended settings at 16mm rear perch and 55mm front perch. These settings give me even height all around, contrary to Barrygold’s experience. I got it installed at parts3xpress These are noticeably more comfortable...

    Model Y glass roof chip

    Not a silly question as I have called around and not many shops do or recommend applying film protection on the glass roof. One shop that did my front Xpel clear bra said he's not confident that Xpel would stick on glass and if it would wrap properly as he has never done it. And another shop I...

    New Model Y Tail lights?

    Absolutely agree with you there. But it was mobile service where they came to my house to do the job while I was out. I have to take ownership in verifying my own car but the technician needed to verify his work too (somehow). Also I noticed that my blinkers and backup lights have been working...

    New Model Y Tail lights?

    I recently had this experience with old vs new tail lights. Bought my Model Y in Feb 2021. Had condensation in both tail lights and mobile service came out to replace. I thought everything was good until yesterday someone pointed out that my brake lights were not working. Today I dropped off...

    Rear door paint chips/road rash poll

    Yikes I don’t understand how you’re getting that much damage even with EV Mudflaps. Sure PPF will help but it’s not going to help the plastic trim. Not saying any of this is your fault though. Just makes me worry about my rear plastic trim if I were to make road trips.

    Has anyone regretted the color the chose enough to try trading in shortly after purchasing?

    MountainPass Performance Comfort Coilovers

    Measurement from the middle of your wheel to the fender. But what I like to do is measure from the bottom lip of the wheel to the fender. Take that measurement and subtract the diameter of the wheel divided by two. This is because sometimes it's hard to gauge exactly where the middle of the...

    Has anyone regretted the color the chose enough to try trading in shortly after purchasing?

    Right I’m just talking about base price just to keep it simple. You can add in FSD if you want, it doesn’t change much of the concept, which is you can’t factor in the taxes and fees when you’re trying to sell it as a used car at a price above retail. I mean you can, just finding that buyer is...

    Has anyone regretted the color the chose enough to try trading in shortly after purchasing?

    It just seems like you're going to have to pony up a lot of money just to switch colors. You WILL have to sell your current car at a loss, and repay all the taxes/registration (speaking simply from a California state). No one is going to purchase your used MYP above retail just because you want...

    Model Y rattle - anybody has similar problem?

    Oh my goodness I have the same rattle. Subscribing for any kind of updates. Haven't gotten the chance to pin point the issue.

    MountainPass Performance Comfort Coilovers

    Wow thanks for that info. I’ll see if I run into this same hub to fender differences when I get these installed. I’m wondering why MPP’s initial recommended setting is 55mm front perch with that 395mm hub to fender measurement.
  37. C

    MountainPass Performance Comfort Coilovers

    Actually I may have been wrong to assume MPP initial height setting is 1 inch lower for MYLR. I just measured my hub to fender on stock MYLR and it's around 435mm. Sorry I don't have a metric ruler to be precise. With MPP's initial setting at 395mm, that's 40mm difference which is close to 1.5...

    MountainPass Performance Comfort Coilovers

    Also a follow up, lowered 1 inch from MYLR or MYP? It would be nice to know what trim. I have MYLR and planning to start with MPP initial setting, which I believe is 1 inch lower for MYLR.
  39. C

    MountainPass Performance Comfort Coilovers

    Same experience here. Do not assume initial settings are already set when you receive the coilovers. Adjust them yourself. My front settings were waaaay off.

    Are there any radar detector mounts for the Model Y?

    On a similar topic, I've never really needed a radar detector until now. I am speeding a lot in the MY because it's so damn fun.

    Tesla wall connector question..

    This is a great question, and I myself asked the same thing. But because the manual says what it says, and there is currently no way to prove that it works on a single circuit, it's hard to assume anything else. If things change in the future then we'll know. Quite frankly throwing out...

    Tesla wall connector question..

    You're quoting a marketing paragraph but skipping all the technical details. It clearly says on page 23 and 24 that each Wall Connector should be on its own branch circuit.

    So what do I do with the stock suspension parts?

    I know you mentioned that it takes up a lot of space, but if you ever sell the Tesla and go back to stock, you'll wish you kept it. But if you're planning to sell the Tesla with MPP coilovers, then getting rid of the stock suspension won't be an issue. Best way is to sell it, and hopefully...
