This is such a great video! The fact you took your time to film and explaining the installation process really sold me on getting this kit. I was searching for something that shut itself off without me having to manually do it and hiding the cables with this kit is way cleaner than what I kept seeing on the market. The lights look amazing and vibrant. The price on this is awesome, used your code to support you. Thank you so much for the video and updates you've been doing on the comment section! Can't wait to install this on my model 3 when it arrives.
Thank you for the kind words! You are going to love it! Keep me posted on the install and congratulations!
@@m3jazz Just finished installing! Took me around 3 hours, due to the fact I couldn’t install the footwell lights in the front properly (I was scared of breaking something on my end). But rigged something similar to it without having to remove the light itself and was able to hide the cables using your method just fine! Everything works amazing. Super happy with the outcome. Thank you again for the video!
@@PattyCakeTV awesome to hear! Congratulations on your install!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Wow, the best LED kit I have seen so far. However, I don't have the patience to install. I will definitely pay someone to install it. Great video. The lights looks amazing
I completely understand that. Much appreciated 🤘🏽.
Just bought the mid-tier kit and UPS will deliver it this Tuesday, can’t wait! I’ve watched your video and LightingBugTech’s install video a bunch of times to be all set for the setup. Although the thing I’m must concerned about is how to properly hide the cables for the front footwell lights. You make it look so easy haha. Also LightingBug’s video shows how to do it but they removed the seats and in that way, have easy access to the holes in the rug.
I’ll see how it goes, wish me luck!
Congratulations!!! Yea I was NOT going to remove my seats lol. They tuck away pretty easily. You GOT THIS!!! Keep me posted!
@@m3jazz Update: Installed everything today, took around 3-4 hours. I wanted to make sure it looked as clean as possible, and oh boii, it does! Looks insane and creates a cool atmosphere in the car! And the best part is that it shuts itself off when leaving the car.
One minor issue is that I can close the bottom A/C cover on only the right side. The left side wont close entirely (I’m guessing it’s because of the extra power cord cable?)
Anyways, thank you so much for your video and support, Jazz 👌🏻👌🏻 Btw, how’s yours holding up?
@@iNiAX_ hell yea! Glad to hear it. That is interesting about it not closing 🤔. Mine closed just fine. Mine is working like it is brand new 😎. Dont forget to set your welcome light feature!
Probably the best install vid I've seen-THANKS!!
Absolutely! Thank you
Awesome recommendation, i cancelled the amazon lighter plug in lights i ordered last night for the $329 package. Night rider mode is awesome. I opted for the OEM install, very clean. Thanks again, Im subbed.
Heck yea! Super excited for you! Thanks so much 🤘🏽
This looks awesome. Specially since it turns on when you turn on the car
Yea the auto on/off feature definitely is a plus
Great video actually decided to buy the premium. The video is really gonna help for my install. I will say one thing always cut away from you to avoid cutting yourself. I noticed the bandage.
congratulations!!! I had managed to rub the skin off the top of my finger lol. It wasn’t a cut. I appreciate it though!
I don’t have a Tesla atm, but it WILL come. Seeing this video, it reminds me of the BMW network which is waaay futther than Tesla. Good job! Nice filming! Will keep this as a favorite video for use in the future.
So awesome to hear. Cant wait to see it. If you can, use my code. It would be a big favor!
Amazing video!!! Getting these soon!
Congrats! Keep me posted on the install! 🙌🏽😎
Really cool! Thanks for sharing, looks great!
Absolutely! Thank you🤘🏽
So I got my kit. Was scared to install. But I got it started. My dash light ain’t working. I’ve reached out to lighten Bug. Hopefully this will get exchanged and my project will continue. 2 hours in. My 1st time installing anything😮
Hmmm I wonder what the problem could be? I haven’t come across anyone with this issue yet. Lightingbug has great customer service so i’m sure it will be resolved in the best way possible.
I have bought this product, and I had very low quality/ugly products with visible flaws. I have been writing the company for two months, sending pictures, and they acknowledges the flaws, but haven't sent me my three defect parts yet. I live in Denmark and I feel I have been writing and AI in China. My product had air in the lights so they were super ugly in daylight. Apparently a flaw in the making, they said. But astonishingly they are promising me new parts but not sending any. It's the most weird service. Nothing makes sense. But glad so many had a good experience.
Sorry to hear about this for you, but they do follow up on their deliveries, so hopefully you get your new parts soon. They are also updating the product to make it better so people have less experiences like yours. So just be patient with them 🤘🏽
@@m3jazz Thanks for responding. I'm glad you write that. I was starting to loose my faith in them. I hope to be able to finish my Y - either with or without lighting bug. Hopefully with.
Just ordered mine hopefully it’s super easy I hate installing but I must have 😂
You got this! Congratulations!
Great video!
Much appreciated 🤘🏽
I ordered it but wanted to cancel it anyway, customer service returned two very unprofessional emails. Yot that I now absolutely no longer receive a response from them, after tens of emails. I rejected the package during delivery and it has now been returned, but I have no redundancy and they completely ignore the emails@@m3jazz
Amazing video looks great
Many thanks brother
Great quality video brother, keep up the good work. Nice shots and transitions as well. The text is good as well. I like as well to keep installation as OEM and clean as possible. I like that it is connected to the car's harness for auto on/off. Would be perfect to have it triggered by the headlights on/off.
I really appreciate the kind words. Oem+ is definitely the way to go 🤘🏽
@@m3jazzJazz, let me ask you something, do the footwells stay on while the car is running, or they go off after a while? How is the setting for brightness?....was planning to do only the footwells in mine. Thanks 👍
@@kaimanson3174 they stay on the entire time. I felt the brightness levels are great. I usually keep mine about halfway up. You can change the brightness in the app.
@@m3jazz once setup thru the app, it will save the brightness % indefinitely or it need to be setup every time?
@@kaimanson3174 the settings will stay unless you change them.
Dude your car is getting really cool.
Thanks so much fam! Congratulations on the new releases!
Nice. Subbed.
Much appreciated
This looks great. It’s pricey though. Does it automatically turn on/off with the car in the last mode it was in?
Yes, it does stay in the last mode it was in until you change it. It is well worth the price in my opinion.
How is visibility during the day? The current lights I have can't be seen at all during daytime, so I'm considering getting this one instead.
They are visible. Just turn the brightness up 🙌🏽
$329 for the kit? Geez
Yea. Its a great price for the entire interior
I’ll pass…..that price is way too much.
@@v2F1boy considering most other kits are $700+. Okay lol. No one said you had to buy it 😂
@v2F1boy spent $223 for a kit that replaced saddle and dash and it looks stock. Was a pain to take everything apart but looks good.
It’s a $50,000 car so….
3:23 when you unplug the stock connector, do you lose functionality of the two back USB-C ports? or does the new connecter allow them to connect back? i’m not sure if the stock connector does anything or if it has a plug on the new connector for the stock connector to plug back in. Lmk!
@@ZeeDuke its a Y-Connector, so everything works as OEM. The back two USB ports will work as usual 😎. No worries there.
@@m3jazz Oh Awesome. Thank you for the response.
@@ZeeDuke anytime ✌🏽
I would love a 3+ month review to let us know how it's holding up!
You got it! 🤘🏽
Great video, nice and thorough, great job! The Premium kit comes with the lights for back of the front seats right? Did you install those/do an install video for those? Thanks!
They sure do, I did not as I have seat covers on the back of the seats
Remove the dashboard makes the process easier. 👍
Yea, a lot more effort for most folks though. Appreciate the insight 👏🏽👏🏽
Have you read into any laws about the installation? I'm just wondering as this build require you to bridge a contactor ( 3:25 ) with something that is not from the manufacturer. Are there sheets on what this contactor impacts on the car? I've been in the street car community with my BMW m3 for a long time, and now I'm giving my model 3 a shot with some new upgrades, and this looks perfect! I'm just worried about that contactor bridge we have to insert.
I haven’t come across any law trouble 🤨
I just bought this kit and was extremely happy. The dashboard light strip only lights up halfway for me though :/
Hoping to get a replacement
Man, sorry to hear that. Contact customer service and they should set you up with a new one, no problem
Not sure if you're still experiencing this or got a replacement but the Q&A page on LightingBug website says it is normal for the first time and that you have to use the app to change some things to get the dash strip to light up fully. Wonder if what they mentioned is actually the solution or you need new light strip.
@@liam1902 hey, thanks for this info. I know they are in the process of updating things so that we can get some cool new features 😎. I have never had a problem, but if folks do they have an answer thanks to you. You rock 🤘🏽
@@m3jazz Do you know what those updates are and when they'll be out? I was planning on buying the mid-tier premium kit next month or so cause I'm planning on doing the installation.
@@liam1902 you will now be able to change the welcome lights on the doors, and they are also trying to integrate your blinkers and Blindspot warning into the door lights
do you feel this lighting is better than the ev base lighting what's your comparison between the two?
I can say this is the best on the market from what I have heard and experienced, but everyone has their own opinion
Would it be possible to get power from a diffrent place than between the front seats ? I have a 2nd row monitor installed, that currently gets its power from that exact plug you're connecting to
I am not sure. Let me ask and get back to you 🤘🏽
Hey! So I just got word that under the rear AC is the only place to install
They also said you may be able to plug both of them together
Thnx buddy
@@m3jazz
I also have a 2nd monitor plugged into the AC. Was it ever confirmed that this is acceptable and will work?
Hello, can you dim the lights and does it turn on/off automatically?
@@Steven-ix7lu hey! Yes to both questions 😎
Thanks for the video, in here a Spanish guy living in Spain planning to buy the kit, have already seen others that work also on the doors, but this one look awesome and easier to install. Question is there any promo code you have to get a discount?. Keep up the good work
Hey! Awesome news, you are going to love it. The promo code is M3Jazz. I believe it is also in the description 😎
Would Tesla do this job? And do it voids battery warranties?
Im going to say no they wouldn’t. As far as warranty, that is something you’d have to contact them about
Looking sick! Great video! Which floormats did you get?
Appreciate it, I have some from amazon. Are you in the market for some?
Thanks for great video. Doesn't this installation effect Tesla warranty? Have you had any issues with Tesla?
I have had zero issues
Thanks for the vid. How does the lights act when you have sentry mode on? It doesn’t automatically turn on when sentry mode gets activated? My radar would do this.
No it does not. They only turn on once you enter the vehicle.
@m3jazz did you have any issues connecting the phone app, LED LAMP, to your lights? I have an iPhone and I've tried multiple times but the app won't connect to the lights in my Tesla. I've restarted bluetooth and reinstalled the app many times but it still won't connect. I was just curious if anyone else has had this issue.
@@hadleyempire hey there, I did like the second day I installed them, but restarting the app and disconnecting bluetooth worked for me. I have not had any problems since then. I hope that works, if you continue to have any problems I would contact them and they may send you a new Bluetooth controller. I know they are coming out with a new one to allow some new cool features 🤙🏽
@@m3jazz ok, thanks for the reply. Just to clarify the bluetooth controller is the same as the main module/controller right? I sent them an email telling them about my issue, so hopefully they send me a replacement controller.
@@hadleyempire that is correct
Does this kit have wires that take up the arm rest storage space? Also it there an option for lights on the side of the doors?
No it does not take up the arm rest storage space, and to my knowledge they have the door lights in the works 😎. Coming soon!
Why does the dashboard light look significantly larger when lit up? The lights you put in looked super slim.
My only guess is the reflection of light 🤷🏽♂️.
I like it, but don't have the patience to do it. I would have to hire someone lol.
Haha I totally understand, if you were in Socal I would offer to do it for ya.
@@m3jazz And I would pay you lol
@@AlvinTatumJr opem for business
@@AlvinTatumJr where are you located?
@@m3jazz East Coast
Can this be installed with the rear screen? I mean double Y connector to OBD would work?
According to the manufacturer it should work.
Hey Bro! I have a similar Kit, But only Lights in the Dashboard. Can you please advise me how Can I set the “Welcome” light? The App I have is called LED LAMP, and I would like create your Same Effect.
Tap the gear ⚙️ in the top right corner, then go to the welcome tab on the top.
Great vid! I’m considering buying the full kit. Any issues with glare at night?
I personally havent had any issues, i just turn the brightness to a lower setting if I feel the need. You won’t regret the purchase 🤘🏽
Do they turn on and off when you shut the car/open the car door? Or is it only controlled by the app?
Yes, the are auto On/Off. No need to do it through the app unless you want to.
Amazing! Will the kit turn off in daytime? Is it controlled by auto headlights? What is the app name so i can check features. Thanks
The kit can be turned off in the daytime via the app. It is auto on/off with the vehicle not the headlights. The app name is called LED Lamp. I will put the link in the description for you :)
I just bought this. Does this block the AC at all? Also, I have Nestour kit that has on/off plug on cigarette lighter. So these are complete automatic and shut off when the car shuts off? The nestour currently doesn’t do that.
Hey there, these DO NOT block the A/C. The strip is so thin and fits perfectly in the dash, so no worries there. They also shut off when the car is off, so no more plugging and unplugging 😎. You’re going to love them
How much can I charge if I want to sell this as an installation service ?
Thats up to you 🤷🏽♂️
Do these lights work so they will only come on during the evening?
You would have to manually turn them on or off as they come on automatically when the doors are open
@@m3jazz thanks for your reply. Keep up the great work!
@@Joshsmoove much appreciated!
Awesome review and install does it work on tm3 2019?
Sure does. Thanks for the kind words
Thanks and question this the dash light cover the entire length?
Yes. It is from end to end
I just got the 2023 Model 3 standard rwd....I guess the footwell lights and the led lights are there but disabled in the software since it is partial premium interior. Will this kit work? What do you do with the harness plug you unplugged to plug the kit harness into. What was it originally for?
The kit taps into the rear AC power and not the footwell lights like other kits, so it shouldn't be an issue
If I also added the screen retrofit there that uses the same power that I can also use it for the lighting kit?
@@sunderwoodAZ I believe it has to be one or the other as they would use the same plug. Unless you found a Y connecting cable to allow you to plug both the lights and the screen into the main source.
@@orochimarugin thank you for the response 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Quick question. I’ve just ordered my lights. How long did this installation take? Can a not so technical person do this?
Congratulations! You can totally install these by yourself. It will most likely take a couple of hours. Keep me posted on how they turn out 🤘🏽
I'm installing on Saturday 10/14 @@m3jazz
@@Patreaseful how awesome. Keep me posted on how it goes!
Yeah that's a dope job can you just tell me more how it works like when you get in your car do you have to turn something on does it turn off when you exit your car do you have to login to the app every time
It stays connected to your phone via bluetooth. Once you exit the car and the doors close the lights turn off. You can also turn them off via the app. I turn my off during the day and back on during the evening.
@@m3jazz So the lights are not controlled by the ODB connection? It relies on the bluethooth connection to the app? That will be a big no go for me.
@@ugurh5213 the lights are hard wired to the car, you use the app to change the colors and different light effects. Because they are hard wired to the car, they automatically turn on once you unlock the car and turn off once you lock the vehicle. They are connected via the plugs under the rear a/c as shown.
@@m3jazz So you can turn them on or off or dim from the model 3 Pad?
@@Tarkstuff no, that has to be done from your phone via the app
What did you do with the cable that were attached to the lights?
Which one? They are all neatly tucked away
Ok I will tuck them away also. I’m about 80% complete . I have a few cable issue’s. Thank you for showing me all things are possible. I can’t wait to be completely finished 😊thank you. I will keep you posted
@@Patreaseful happy to help any way I can
do the rear usb ports still work after install?
They sure do
Does the light go off immediately when you leave/lock the car before car goes to sleep?
Yes, they are hard wired. So they will turn on and off once you exit and enter the vehicle. No worries there. You also have the option to turn them off manually via the app as well.
@@m3jazzin the app can you select which lights you leave on or off? For example keep the dash off and the footwell on.
@@barrygrandon4429 that is correct. You can individually select which lights to have on or off 🤘🏽
Hey bro thanks for the link and explanation, was wondering if this will void warranty and you know how long the led light will last by chance?
Much appreciated fam, I am not sure of the warranty part. Ive had a Tesla service appointment since install and they didn’t say anything about them. They have done pretty well for me so far with no issues.
Does it come with the pry tool for installation do you have link for it if doesn't package coming in today @@m3jazz
@@bindyjohal9024 yes, it should come with all tools needed for the install, I believe it is a turquoise color.
@@m3jazz thanks
@@m3jazzfriend installed it everythings good accept basically on the drives footwell only green color seems to be working when I change it to purple everything else will change but only green will stay on the driver's side and it will stay dim , also the wire beside the module was making a footwell light come on and off but it's okay for now unless it is moved
Does this also come with lights for the back seats? I just ordered the 2024 kit.
Sure does
@@m3jazzthe video doesn’t show the install of the back seat lights. I didn’t know if I need the full kit 2023.
And it doesn’t show the back seats lit up.
@@jajacobs2 thats because I didnt install those. I have seat back covers and did not know if they would stick on the material. You do need to purchase the full kit for the back lights.
@@jajacobs2 yes it does. 11:10 🙌🏽
How they holding up?
Still good as new. Just installed a set in my girls model 3 last week 🤘🏽
Too bad it doesn’t have the side door trim strips for the 2022-23 models
Maybe in the future 😎
Is there a way to keep it off if Im driving during night time?
Turn it off from the app
Yea, they charge way too high for some simple LED strips
Way more cost effective than the others that charge twice as much ✌🏽
My same thought, but I believe the way it is installed is why. I haven't found any kit that is installed this way.
@@kaimanson3174 yea, they charge that much because of the way they tap into the rear passenger MCU for power and the custom app for LED.
Follow up:
Buyer beware, do not buy this product. My dash light worked for about five minutes and stopped working entirely. Definitely the fault of the light as the door lights work fine in the dash port on the control module. If you wanna let your Tesla stick with something very basic or buy one of the more expensive brands, you get what you pay for I guess. this kit is just trying to be too much, a jack of all trades is a master at none.
WOAH WOAH WOAH, Mine and countless others have been working perfectly fine. 🤷🏽♂️. Did you call support and ask for a replacement? Sorry you’re going through this.
@@m3jazz I don’t see a number to call them but I’ve been emailing them. Regarding the missing parts They stated they have new hires which aren’t trained properly. Still waiting for a response for the faulty light. But With all the problems I had this far I’m really not interested in a replacement and so glad I didn’t get to the door panels. At this point hopefully they’re good enough to just refund me if not I guess I just cut my losses.
@@joshmaier18 there was another customer who thought his light wasn’t working properly and they talked him through how to fix it. I would wait for their response before you immediately go and tell folks not to buy a product because it has become too much work for you to try and install correctly 🤷🏽♂️.
Great video!
Many thanks
