Tesla Accessories You Need on Day 1 of Ownership - Only The Essentials
Рет қаралды 232,879
2 жыл бұрынWhen you finally join the Tesla community with your very own Tesla Model Y or Tesla Model 3, you will soon find just how overwhelming the aftermarket accessories space is. It can be too difficult to figure out what you should and should not get.
When you first take delivery of your Tesla, you do not need every little gadget and light out there. In fact, you really only need 6 things before your new Tesla arrives. These 6 items are the ones you will want to have from day 1 because you will be able to best protect your new Model Y or Model 3 right from the beginning when it is fresh.
Tesla stopped providing a center console tray for the arm rest some time ago, but also never offered one for the lower console. With these 2 compartments, adding a tray is simple and adds storage capabilities to your Tesla. This 2 piece kit slides right in and is made for both the Model Y and the Model 3.
I love our white interior, and many of you do too. I have had tremendous success with the Gyeon Leather Shield. This is an added layer of protection for those beautiful white seats and makes keeping the interior clean even easier. I apply this ceramic immediately after delivery and reapply once a year.
Just like your cellphone, a screen protector is a no brainer. This large screen is a center piece of the Tesla experience in a Model Y and Model 3. I have had good success with this Carweiner screen protector in the past and continue to use it. Easy to install and cost effective.
Protecting the floors and keeping your interior nice and fresh requires floor mats. There are now many providers of floor mats out there and I continue to prefer the 3D MAXpider floor mats as our go to protection.
PPF is a very costly investment in protecting the paint on your Tesla. With the help of drive protected shop, and our 20% discount code, you can literally save thousands on PPF by doing it yourself. I highly recommend you at least consider covering the front of your Tesla from road debris.
Once PPF is installed, or if you are not planning on installing PPF, make sure to top it all off with a protection layer of Ceramic. Ceramic coating will keep your exterior shining for years to come and will prevent light scratches from forming on the surface. Applying Ceramic is one of the easiest and most cost effective DIY protections you can add to your Tesla and you should seriously consider doing this yourself.

Technically, none of these are "essential," but all are nice to have. A big one that you left out is the charger...i wish I had that installed prior to receiving my Tesla. I drove 3 hours to pick it up and 3 hrs back home and had to work the next day at 5 a.m. Supercharger stations were more than twice as much per KWH than my rate at home. I would actually consider having enough ofna charge to make the vehicle operable to be essential.

Great video, Used your code to do the ppf front cap on my 2022 M3 a week after picking it up in December. Was quick a bit of challenge to install the front bumper. I would start with the hood, mirrors, fenders and finally do the bumper and use lots of slip solution. My only advice is if you're looking for perfection, get it done professionally, if not save a huge chunk of money and do it yourself. Be sure to ceramic coat afterwards. Eric from Drive Protect has awesome videos . :-)

Beyond cosmetic modifications, I would say that the essentials should include either having a spare tire (ie Modern Spare) or Slime with a tire inflator on hand in the car too. Teslas do not come with a spare! A tow truck is covered by Tesla for the first 50 miles to a service center/tire place but if it is further than that, you have to pay for the rest of the fee. Save yourself the time and headache that comes with a flat and be prepared!

I think you are right about a lot of things but may not fully understand the ceramic coating process. Even new cars have to be decontaminated before they are coated if you want lasting results. This means proper wash, clay bar and polish first. Very few people will do that properly and mis use of a clay bar and mar up your paint. Coating without decontaminating is a waste of money since you just lock in the contaminants. Maybe it is still better than nothing if you want to save money, but to say its an easy process may be misleading if you want ti done correctly.

I considered getting roof sun shades for my Tesla model 3 even before I got it a year ago. I'm glad I didn't. I live in an area where it's frequently cloudless and 40 C (104 f) in the summer and I've never felt the need for the roof shades. I do, however, obsessively pre-cool my M3 using the app before getting in it if it's hot out. A front window shade, however, is a must to protect the front interior of the car. Some might argue the same thing for the roof shade but roof shades aren't really meant to be removed at the start of every drive whereas a front window shade is ..... obviously :-) .

This is a real miss I never thought of until someone said something last year. I take for granted I don’t need one but if I did, that would make it a challenge. I’m not aware of an aftermarket one, but I’m sure someone is working on one.

How you compare ride quality of the model y vs rwd 3? I test drove both and I felt the y has much better ride quality but roads I drove the y on were much smoother than the ones I drove the 3 on. So,it’s hard to tell
@BeardedTeslaGuy Жыл бұрын
Having had both, the 3 sr was a smoother ride. 3 lr is second, and y is last. Now that I have 18” wheels and beefy tires, my Y is the most comfortable. But you can’t overcome a harsh suspension with only tires.

first thing to do when you get a new tesla is to put mud flaps on and get paint protection and tinting. before you do anything.

Given how stained my 2010 Mazda became where my elbows sat by the window and on the console, is there any potential value applying the ceramic coating for the seats to the door trim and console, or is it not meant to go there?
@BeardedTeslaGuy 2 жыл бұрын
Yea, you can put it there too if you like. None of it is real leather so sealing it won’t hurt anything
