This is by far the BEST video on how to install the auto frunk. It was short, clear and to the point! I too have had issues with the Hansshow strut damaging my weather strip. They also instructed me to cut away a bit of the plastic cover to fit the wider diameter strut. Thanks again for this fantastic video.
Incredible video. I can only imagine the time it took to plan, setup, shoot, and then edit. Great job!
Thanks Bruce!
That was the easiest instructional video for installation that I have seen online. Great job, and thanks for posting/sharing.
This was a great video! If they hooked you up for free, you more than earned it. Thanks for all the work put into this!
20:48 - I was all in and considered purchasing until I saw the 3M automotive tape. There really should be a bracket for this rather than tape at this price.
Tesla tip you might want to pass along. I’ve found that driving in autopilot if I rest my hand on the steering wheel with the Palm over the two dials on the spoke, I can eliminate the autopilot asking to place hands on wheel. There’s just enough pressure on the wheel and I’m still in position to use the wheel if I need to take control
Thanks
I love the ‘I reached out’ part. Presumably it means you asked for a free one or a discount due to the youtube channel
I definitely appreciate these step-by-step videos. I'm not sure if I'll end up getting one of these, but if I do, I will for sure use this as a reference guide. Keep putting these out there.
You’ll have to change your name to “Not so Frugal Tesla Guy” the money you spend on your car 😂
"Extravagant Tesla guy"? :)
@@eubikedude I like it! ETG
I'm guessing FTG spends hardly anything, I doubt he has to pay for Superchargers because of all the referrals I'm sure he gets (rightly so!) & a lot of the parts he receives free of charge (or supplemented) due to the exposure they will get via his (excellent) UA-cam channel!
Many a Model 3 owner like myself will have made their decision to buy one much easier after watching your videos! No clickbait, just decent content!! Keep up the good work FTG!
As I used to say to my friend, "frugal not cheap". Big difference 😂
@@MaccGooner Just saw this. Thanks Jon! I appreciate the kinds words!
Frequent viewer first time poster. Wanted to say thank you so much for both this video and your first review of these auto openers. This video gave me the confidence to install my own frunk opener. Your attention to detail and straightforward process made it very easy and fun. Just finished and it works great!
That's awesome! So glad I was able to help! Did you go with the Tesla Offer auto frunk?
Frugal Tesla Guy - I did. Mark 3. There’s a sale over at Teslamotorclub until the end of the month. I was able to get it for 20% off and free shipping.
@@jasondeno4000 Nice!!!
See the orange firefighter tag wrapped around a cable at 4:07 and at 5:52? My 2021 Model 3, as delivered, has that protruding through the frunk tub seam so that it is immediately visible when the frunk is opened. Not all of it protrudes, but certainly the firefighter symbol and it is obvious and quick to see.
My daughter is a volunteer firefighter running rescue, so I asked her about it. She said that FF rescuers know that Teslas are different in a couple ways, but she wouldn't know right off how to disconnect power in a Tesla despite her continuous ongoing training and she'd definitely benefit by being able to see that tag right off. So, my bet is that you really want to have that tag protruding and visible, just as it is in the delivered vehicle. I really don't know, but wanted to call it to your attention to think about because it doesn't seem to be visible in your final reassembly.
A vert good install video. Got the the tesla offfer trunk ,frunk ,softcose and present door. All over very pleased with the teslaoffer 👍
Awesome! I’m looking to have the self presenting handles and soft close doors installed soon!
Excellent video! It gives me confidence to do it myself. And the result looks great. Thanks for the explanation and instruction video!
Awesome! I have faith in you. You can do it! 👊
nice video. The only thing I noticed is that you did not disconnect the 12v battery during the work. Always disconnect the 12v battery during the work, and reconnect it only at the end of it! Less risk to break something.
So much for the Frugal bit. I want a automatic umbrella dispenser in the B-pillar. :) But, thanks again for giving us some of the best videos.
Rolls Royce has an umbrella dispenser but it’s not automatic.
Hello from San Diego. Way to go....I’ll be ordering mine soon, always love all your videos. Vic :-)
Great work! Very well explained and good camera work. Thumbs up, Mike!
I've driven my model 3 over 33,000 miles in the last 20 months. I can't think of one time I needed the frunk to close automatically. Especially not for $500 regardless of DIY or paying someone additional money for labor.
Different strokes for different folks. I use my frunk a ton, as it is my default location for any take-out food, or small grocery/hardware trips. I installed the "Jeep struts" to make it pop open when I tell Siri "open the frunk." I would be nice to have it close without me putting finger prints on the hood. I also don't like the struts making the hood wobble on pop up. I just placed an order for this kit, plus the trunk and kick sensor.
@@tstan6827 I understand your comment but please tell me how that fits in with "Frugal Tesla Guy". Spending that kind of money on a feature that does nothing to save money or time is not frugal.
It would be fine on any other Tesla channel... Not this one. Lol
@@yj10guy Oh, well of that’s your position, then it’s hard to argue, as TFG installs and reviews plenty of items that are of non-trivial cost. While I have not heard him say this directly l, but I assume he gets most of his stuff for free, as promotional items.
I don't get it. If, like the OP, you think it's too much money or that you don't need/want it at any price, just don't buy it. If I think it's worth it and will be useful, your opinion is just irrelevant noise. Mike does a real service for those who are considering the purchase. He gives us info to help make a decision. Thanks, Mike. The grumps who complain because others disagree with them add no value for anyone. Big difference. And what is frugal for me now is way different from what it was when I was in my 30s. It makes no sense to tell me, others or Mike what frugal means.
Very nice step by steps dyi installation.. love your videos.. thank you
This is something I might consider getting at some point if money permits. My Model 3 is the 2021 refresh so I would have to get the 4.0 for $549. We'll see...I want to study it further to make sure there are no drawbacks.
The right side of the car is not the passenger side in all countries. ;) I'd suggest applying the pulling force nearer the clips when popping the various plastic parts out. Maybe some blue threadlocker on the bolts too. I highly recommend "liquid tape" (from the PlastiDip people) for sealing connectors and covering unpainted bolts etc. Maybe you can review it? The version that comes in the jar is better than the spray IMO. I'd like to see a pad under the control module to reduce vibration and maybe a mounting bracket/larger/flatter sticking area for the motor.
It looks like a nice (much neater than previous ones) product! Thanks for the video!
Fitted mine today step by step followed you worked perfect many thanks
Fitting trunk soon im from uk
That’s great! Glad to help.
Great job on this video. I know you had difficulty with your Hansshow unit previously. It's hard to keep up with the versions as these products continue to evolve and improve their design.
$500 🇺🇸 is big money 💰 for a feature that many can do without. But it's certainly a 'nice to have'.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Extraordinarily clearly done and most informative. Thanks ever so much for all your work!
Thanks for the video. And the installation process. But I know why you replaced it cuz u got it for free.
Nope. I had to pay for it. They didn’t even ask me to make this video.
You could have gotten a replacement from Hansshow for free so this says a lot about one product being much better than the other.
Great video and very well detailed. Don't take this as a criticism but I'm a bit OCD, so in doing my install, I would be looming the cables so that it looks "factory".
Impressive Great and professional video many many thanks for the time you spent to offer us, a such great Tuto ! A big hello from France and thanks a tons to still continue offering your time for feedback and Tesla experience by videos. Stay positive, not only in charge 😉 Cédric
I just ordered mine and used your discount code. Thanks 😊
👍
Cant wait for the Mk 4 install!!
Talk about ads overload. But good video!
Calm down with the ads bro
Very nice review FTG. I'm looking at doing this when my M3 is delivered. Question, hows this new electric frunk holding up? Also, do you have any comments on the foot sensor?
At 10:16 there looks to be a bit of metal (beneath the sticky label) that just sort of falls down, and seems to just be lost behind the new soft close motor that is attached. Is that right? Also just before that point in the video, at 9:53, you say "Yours will look like this.." - why? Is that because you're removing the Hansshow soft close motor at that point, not the Tesla OEM one?
Thanks for such a comprehensive step by step video though. Great job!
Very good eye! Honestly, I never noticed that until now and can't imagine it's a issue. Nothing clips into it and it just looks like the flat arm pushes up flush against it. Sorry I don't have a better answer.
To answer your second question. Yes. The image in the picture is the OEM spring. The one I was removing was the Hansshow spring.
I hope this helps!
This was an awesome tutorial. Well done!
Hey Mike. I live up the street from you. My Model 3 is cold dead in my garage this morning. 12v battery died in the Redding heat without any warning. Car is less than a year old, 15k miles. Apparently, this is a very very common issue on Model 3s. I'm trying to get Tesla service to call me back. Also trying to find a 12v battery replacement in the North State is proving to be a real issue. I was not aware just how challenging it would be if the 12v battery dies. As you likely know (I did not) the app doesn't work, the car won't unlock, the charging port wont even open. I had just enough power to pop the frunk, but if not you have to use a 9v battery to hot wire it. It's a real problem I wish I had known about. Thought it might be a good topic for future video.
My battery died a month ago, My is almost 2 years old. Tesla service came out to replace it no charge. The service guy told me the 12V battery last about 2 years. So call up Tesla service to get a replace battery for free.
@@niners4t9 Thank you. Yes. I've been trying to get it going now since last Thurs. The 12v battery swelled up and failed catastrophically, filled garage with horrible rotten egg smell (off gassing) and was so hot to the touch I had to remove it quickly because the car was making crazy noises and nothing was working. Without the 12v battery, the Tesla app doesn't even connect and the doors won't open or anything. This is just part of not living near a service center I suppose. We certainly love the car otherwise, but I am going to try to purchase a spare 12v battery when they come out. If this had happened somewhere on the road we would have been in a bad situation.
@@johns.4061 No problem, i think the service guy said it only cost around $127 to buy the battery from them once you car is out of warranty
I’m wondering what speed you liked for raising and lowering? I’d love to see the difference in the 6 settings! Thanks for this cool step-by-step!
I prefer the fastest speed.
Fantastic detailed review ! I mean one of the best. Suggestion - How about a video to hook up the rear speakers on a non premium audio model 3?
Great video! I doubt that the bundled instructions are any better, that being said, if they are not, then get the manufacturer to provide a link to yours. How about a review after the rains, I live down Marin way and boy did we have rains in the winter of 2017. Hope you are safe from the fires.
Hansshow has great reviews on their v5 with waterproof controller. Wonder how it compares. I saw your negative reviews of the Hansshow, but seems it was an early version. These products are constantly being updated to address imperfections\issues. This EV Offer seems to be on their fourth version
No argument there, I'm sure their product is better than earlier versions. However, the reason Hansshow is on their 5th version is because it took them longer to get to where they are now. They released inferior products in the beginning and eventually caught up with EV Offer.
I’m sorry I just could not imagine spending 500 bucks and then paying somebody a couple hundred to put it in just so I don’t have to simply lift my hood/Frunk open,People are just obsessed with adding shit to the Tesla I get it I have one too
And on the web you can get $50 auto-open structs that install in 3 minutes (no worries on opening while moving - not possible; see i1 Tesla review), and an $8 light spring for the latch that installs in 1 minute that makes closing the frunk a light, one-hand motion.
Okay, so imagine doing it yourself and saving a couple hundred bucks. It’s not rocket scientist and takes about 1.0- 1.5 hrs for the average person
Love instructional videos, thanks.
Great install video
Your coupons code gave the 5%, but did not give FREE SHIPPING? Has there been a change? Thank you. I am waiting to hear back from you… Lou
Solid install video
After 2 years, any issues?
Any chance you're open doing this install for others for a fee? I see you're in California... :)
Do mark 3 close the frunk (from screen)without any extra software or coding ,as was a reality in mark 2.
Yup.
Great video 🙂👍
Since you’ve had experience with Hansshow and Tesla Offer, I’m wondering which you’d recommend if you were buying another set? I’m wanting this for my MY but contemplating the 2 manufacturers.
Tesla Offer without a doubt. Their frunk is much more smooth and as far as I’m concerned as close to factory if Tesla had it as an option. Also for the Model Y, take note the frunk doesn’t open as high as OEM. That would drive me crazy.
Hey FTG you just scratched your passenger side hood when you disconnected the strut. Sorry to see that. 😢
I never use my frunk, so all this work and cost is not for me. I will wait. For the device to be added OEM from Tesla in future cars, like the model Y, which comes with it in the rear trunk.
You didn't say where you plug the homelink in to or did I miss that?
They send a different part that works with homelink. Since I’m not using it, I didn’t cover it in the video.
@@FrugalTeslaGuy
Oh, thank you. I wonder what having homelink has to do with it 🤔
@@ijcorner In order to be able to close the frunk from the touchscreen in the car they need to "trick"the system. Some people aren't comfortable with that so they offered a homelink option to close it instead.
@@FrugalTeslaGuy
Oh I see, thanks for taking the time to reply 👍
@@FrugalTeslaGuy I'm assuming this has nothing to do with the Homelink module for garage doors, right?
Is it still working properly after 8 months? Thanks for the update
No problems at all. It works perfectly.
First, love the frunk. Do you reply? Also what version of the model 3 do you have?
I've got a 2018 Long Range Rear Wheel Drive
Do you have an install video for the Model X?
I don’t. Sorry.
I want rear door openers for my model Y to assist Lyft riders!
How is this brand holding up? Any issues? Thanks!
None at all. Solid product.
@@FrugalTeslaGuy Thanks, you sold me on this brand!
nice...
The thing about these 3rd party mechanical accessories is that the review should really take place 6 months to one year after install.
Or a second, "living with" one.
I must have
How do you close it?
Can it be fitted to a November build 2018 100d model X
We do have a Electric Frunk kit for Model X. Please check it out on our website: teslaoffer.com 😉😉
is life better with an automatic frunk?
Yes. Absolutely!
What version of Hansshow did you have on your frunk and trunk?
The frunk was version 3 with the foot sensor and the trunk is Version 1. I do not know if the trunk is open from the screen or app.
Larry said that hansshow now have v5.0. Maybe that fixes the problem. Since you have an older version?
Adds are becoming more frequent... still good content.
Will it work with a model Y ?
They’re working on it .
interested in promoting tesla model X accessories? I am an Amazon tesla accessories seller
You lost me at the word REMOVE!

Question I have for anyone as I have not been able to figure it out: About 80% of the time - when I open the frunk the hood will "pop up" but then it kind of does a "stall out" like it is getting "caught" and the motors will not lift it at all. I have to then lift it by hand. IF I am right at the frunk and give a very gentile "lift" with my hand right as it pops open, the motors will open it up just fine after a ver slight 1/2 second pause. Changing the speeds via the controller does nothing to change this. Once open it closes fine automatically and the hood gap is normal. Any thoughts? I am at the wits end on it.
