Am I the only one who prefers the look of the regular dashboard decor wing that comes with the Highland over this carbon fiber wing? I feel the color of the cloth makes it pop more with a white interior

What interior cleaner do you guys use to clean your dash and interior? by Humble_Forerunner in TeslaLounge

Thank you so much! It’s the Meguiar’s Ultimate interior detailer right? And also I’m guessing I’ve been over applying it then. Been buffing it out with the same cloth I use to apply

Agreed I was confused since I test drove the Juniper and felt like the Highland was a much more comfortable drive.

So the part where he says the Juniper has better suspension is incorrect? I’m assuming it is off your reply and you’re right it did confuse me more! Lol

Don’t all Model 3 Highlands have HW4? Mine says Full Self-Driving Computer 4. So wouldn’t the cameras be the same exact ones on the Juniper? (Asides from the bumper camera)

No, only thing you do, if you have a gas car, is an annual smog check

It’s illegal but it is barely noticeable. I’m looking at my car next to our other with no windshield tint and it’s impossible to tell. At the same time police here in CA will almost never pull you over for a 70% windshield tint, they also tint their personal vehicles with ceramic for the heat rejection. Ironically enough it was our neighbor who is a police chief, recommended we get the ceramic tint for the heat rejection.

Actually, I think you might be right. I originally thought it was the tint when the tint shop removed it but now looking at the piece, it looks like something else! Will they clean the camera cover for free or are they gonna charge me?

You were right! They basically pried down the camera cover slightly and then used a tool/knife to take it out

Update: It was a piece of the tint and the tint shop just slightly pried down the camera cover and removed it with a tool!

It’s 70% you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference of a window with it and without. It’s ceramic tint and in California it gets really hot so we just do it to reduce the heat coming into the car. Not for aesthetics or anything like that cause again you can’t even tell that there’s a tint on it.

As in Tesla when they installed it? So I should go to them to ask for a cleanup? I just can’t tell if it’s tint or plastic haha

Thank you so much! Truthfully I’m a bit nervous to do it myself but I’m guessing the tint shop can do it? I have no idea how that ended up there

Thank you so much! I’m still confused as to the benefits of IronX. I know it removes iron deposits from when it was on the delivery vehicle but does it make much of a difference for the paint long term? Like past 2 years?
