    I ordered all from aliexpress as I new it would be a few months till I got the car. Very happy with the floor mats . The boot liners they had basically folded them done to A4 for shipping and took a lot of work by myself with a heat gun to straighten them out so wouldn't recommend.

    All a lot cheaper than anywhere else. But you'll be eait8 and could potentially be caught for customs

    Can send on links to what I got if you decide to go that route

    Thanks everyone for the cleaning suggestions. I'm probably not going to wash the car myself though, but at least it sounds that hand wash is better than those automatic washes.

    Regarding the frunk boot mats, I just ordered a pair from eBay for 40 quids from a UK seller. Not sure if the quality would be good enough, but it's so much cheaper than elsewhere. Will give an update once I receive them.

    I got these ones:
    https://www.taptes.com/products/taptes-rhd-model-3-all-weather-floor-mats

    They are excellent, well wearing and easy to clean. They come up very high so you dont scuff the carpet when getting in/out.

    Got these also and they are top notch:
    https://www.taptes.com/products/all-weather-cargo-mat-cargo-liner-for-tesla-model-3

    Only issue is they took forever to come, granted I ordered them at the start of a global pandemic, but if you are going to use Taptes see if anyone recently is reporting delivery delays. They are based in China, and China got shutdown etc in the middle of my order and my matts got stranded in Singapore for a month.

    Heated steering wheel confirmed for the model 3? Seems like 2021 is a great year to be getting one.

    Hopefully MIC aswell

    Yeah, I don't get the whole 'heated steering wheel' thing!!

    I've not once in my life ever gotten into a car and felt the steering wheel needed heating up!!, and I spent 2 winters in Lithuania where I often got into the car in the morning and it was -24C

    In fairness I'd never had a car with heated seats before (though had driven plenty of rentals with it), and now we use them all the time so.....


  • Registered Users Posts: 358 ✭✭Sam W


    I always had to hold the wheel by one hand and put the other hand on the car vent in winter mornings, so I’d really hope this heated wheels can solve my problem.

    Sorry but what's MIC?


  • Registered Users Posts: 492 ✭✭Aph2016


    Made in China.

    Is that for quality or battery reasons?

    Why "definitely" ?
    All I've learned is nothing is definite with your Tesla order.
    The last inventory car the red LR was China made.
    It would makes no financial sense to produce RHD's in two different factories.
    Musky isn't the richest man in the world from wasting money

    You could be right but that's what a Tesla staff member told me.

    If I had an M3 order and was delivered an MIC model I'd refuse delivery.

    Ha ,Nice send it on to me. Iv many years working on made in USA machines. Some of the worst engineering and quality ever seen. China is at least 10 years ahead and has a higher skilled work force.
