Perifractic, The Knight Rider Historians salute you on a job excellently done!!! You're making us proud!
Thanks so much! To one man's dream... 🥂🛫
Yes! and make dreams true around World! Just Amazing !
You guys should definitely work something KR related together! 👍
It's you!
@@KarpowSCX We actually are working on something
oh man, what a nice surprise this is. I’m one of the guys who made that kitt app and it’s just great to see it working pretty good after such a long time. I’m not sure why there’s many bad reviews though. Being old as it is it probably doesn’t work properly in some circumstances. I know that’s a shame but my team and I are working on different things in these days, every now and then we chat about updating that app, and we’ll talk about it again now that we’ve seen your video. So thanks a lot for this and the nice review on the store!
You got it! The app is amazing and I’m excited at the possibility of you updating it. 🙏🤞
Any chance this app is for android?
@@sagshan133 I think this is not available on android store now for reasons I don't know much about, I was in charge of the design and overall user experience so this should be asked to my engineering friends. I think the reason is something about the libraries we used which are not supported by android anymore while apple is more thoughtful about providing compatibility for older stuff, but I might be wrong.
@@francescob.3019 alsowith todays technology it should be easier to make it please
@@francescob.3019 please try again to make a android version whith updated kitt pleeeeeaaaassse even if its a paid for app we need this
Can't lie - the best part was seeing the scanner go back and forth - really changed the car
Growing up in the 80s and 90s watching Knight Rider and Air Wolf had me watching this whole video with a huge smile.
The makers of that app are having the best week of their lives
This might be the coolest thing I've ever seen. My inner 9 year old (we all have one!) is buzzing right now!
Also, the airbag explosions had me chuckling...a lot.
Really well done with the airbag joke... it was a joke, right? HA HA! 😄
Peri: “That takes a serious amount of pulling.”
KITT: “I’m speechless.”
One of the greatest unscripted moments. Or is my mind just in the gutter again?
The Knight Rider theme song has been my ring tone for ages and the woo woo is my text tone. I'll be doing something similar to my Roadster. Once I get it. In 10 years lol.
ahhh, sweet nostalgia sweeping over me :) Knight Rider was my jam too back in the 80s, along with Airwolf of course and Riptide. Anybody remember that one ?
Playing my C64 and later Amiga while watching these techy/nerdy shows, what great memories.
And totally agree on the difference the yoke makes with autodrive, it's crazy when you see the yoke move so much.
So...nearly 40 years later we finally are getting really close to fully self driving cars, at least one of the promises of the 80s movies/shows fulfilled....still waiting for my hoverboard and my time travelling flying car though
The conversation with K.I.T.T. was hilarious and awesome!
This is F'N AWESOME. Gave me chills. I miss Knight Rider. Brings back memories
Once KITT is finished, next step should be to create the villain: KARR (yellow voicebox, with amber scanner and silver black body paint).
Awsome job!
Before watching: Can we turn a TESLA into K.I.T.T. from KNIGHT RIDER? --- You darn well better!
After watching: Nice job! The nostalgia is strong with this one.
The re-done intro with the cast member names was perfect.
This was way cooler than I anticipated. And probably the only acceptable use for the yoke. Well done!
I remember an episode of the Knight Rider that KITT Exterior cost millions. So imagine the "Limousine" that drives "the "US President" is merge with TESLA and now we have something closer to "KITT". Remember that KITT is an Artificial Intelligence of a Super Computer, that is why TESLA is not there yet.
I forgot how awesome the Knight Rider theme is
I feel pretty convinced that Elon himself would actually love your awesome mod - and just imagine if one day you would be able to order a Tesla with 'The official Knight Rider KITT package" straight from the factory. That would just be awesome and I feel like it could actually happen. It is Tesla after all. : ) Pure love
I’d be happy to collaborate with Tesla on this
A Knight edition would be so cool
@@RetroRecipes btw a lot of those red lights etc aren't auctully allowed to be used on public roads so it would likely be worth wiring them to a seperate switch to save you getting in trouble with it tbh
At 27:36..... I just can't believe who awesome those cheep chinese lights looks in the Tesla 😲😲😲............ Elon have to add thouse from factory in the next Tesla model 🙃🤭..
Although I really can't afford a Tesla that is a amazing idea.
Wow, great video. Has anyone noticed the production quality has gone up exponentially? Cross-fades, drones, even 3D in the last shots. Besides the content, which is amazing, this really blows my mind.
Cheers for noticing
I was born in 80. Knight Rider aired from 82-86 with 90 episodes. Oddly enough I just last week started watching from the beginning all of the seasons. Love this content! I watched this religiously as a kid!!!
This reminds me for some reason that your Tesla is a Cylon “ now it just needs to say. By your command” I love it
BEST INTRO EVER !!!
Now I can watch the rest.
I'm glad I complained about you dropping the same chiptune for a half hour at a time years ago. Cause the musical score to this video flows like a 1970s progrock album now! All the transitions, all the drops, the keys, all of it brah!
you're probably the one person who actually have proper fun with a tesla instead of "clout" chassing. love to see it
"It doesn't have have a word for wife..." lol the smoothest way to get out that 🤣 good job!
What an incredible video.
Yes, we've all dreamt of owning KITT when we were kids, but today I'll be dreaming of owning your modded Model 3.
15:16 - Sorry for your pain, we all felt it, but it's for a good cause.
21:03 - Awesome to the the self-driving yoke.
22:02 - Ladyfractic just fell in love!
22:13 - What a faux-pas :D
23:16 - KITT! You dawg!
27:25 - Gorgeous shots and sequence
Next week: Perifractic installs a real Flux Capactor in a DeLorean, hits 85 mph and ... Oops !
88
@@Mrshoujo I wondered why the Game of Thrones nun was parading in front of my house ringing that bell and shouting: Shame! Shame! Shame!
More than absolutely anything in this world, Peri really nails the nostalgic vibes of any retro project he tackles.
Once again you’ve blown me away with your video. The production of this video is so professionally done. You made me laugh several times with the airbag gag. Honestly CJ keep going with your videos. Very soon you’ll be at 1 million subs. Still can’t believe that you only just past the 100k. Your channel is a geeks paradise. And say hi to ladyfractic and puppyfractic too
Thanks Alfie!
I find this one week after it was published on UA-cam and earlier today, at the home improvement convention, they had a replica KITT and I had a chance to chat with the owner. Serendipity. :-)
I love the shots of you driving in the desert, such an awesome homage.
Always remove the negative terminal from a car battery first. That'll make it way less likely that you short something out.
The negative terminal was removed when there was the arc from shorting the positive to ground. Either the HV circuit did that or photoshopped.
@@a70duster Ah, it looked like it was still connected but I didn't look very closely. Given that he had "an ElectroBOOM moment" I wonder if maybe it was an effect he added in later (since that's a thing ElectroBOOM does most of the time too)
The negative is removed with the spanner spark but before and afterwards using the socket the negative was connected. So done with editing.
The shocked look on Ladyfractic’s face was just as funny as the airbag gag 😜
Thanks for the memories, I watched Knight Rider when I was in highschool. I always wanted to see KITT in person , now 40 years later. I find my favorite show from when I was younger. Thank you.
The 80's legit had the best TV shows of all time for kids to grow up watching, and aspiring to replicate some day. Sure the stuff these days has better realism, but if you give all the realism, you leave no room to feed your imagination, which is the foundation of building a better world. Growing up in the 80's FTW.
Yep Knight Rider, The A-team, Street Hawk, Airwolf, Hardcastle and McCormick and not to mention the whole Toymation era where we sat down and watched cartoons that were walking toy adverts. 💪🏿
@@ShaneJoshua1980 For us 80,s Kids in Germany, Knight Rider, The A-Team and Godzilla and Bud Spencer & Terence Hill was the Big Thing.
Some really blacked out cool wheels and a rear spoiler, and maybe some window tint. This would be a perfect 2022 K.I.T.T. Great job thus far.
I have no words, I'm blown away by the creativity
Just bought my Tesla in solid black and saw your video because I want to turn mine into K.I.T.T and thank you for introducing the app! I can't wait to turn my car into Knight Industries Two Thousand! 🤙🏼
Certainly can't scHOFF at the effort that went into making this recipode! So glad you went to the hassel!
Hassel(hoff) you mean? 😉👍
Give you props for drilling holes in your Tesla!
Holy moly!!
Knight rider was 1 of my favorite TV shows on TV
The 11 year old me and I envy you. I just couldn't stop watching your video. Dude you really nailed it
This reminds me of the Knight Rider 2000 movie where he puts KITT in other vehicles.
I can't believe after all these years some of those bushes are exactly the same :O
Its awesome to see the kids of yesterday growing up and being able to re-create the dream car they always wanted as a child.
What made KITT KITT was his personality.
I couldn't stop smiling and laughing with delight through this entire episode. You are a legend!
This was simply amazing!!!! Thank you for the ideas and entertaining video!
Cheers Chris!
Tesla needs to improve interior lighting and exterior design ready for kitt mods because its in demand
As Teslas are becoming more common, anyone with a black Tesla could make their own Future K.I.T.T.
Just the names at the beginning made this worth watching!
As a Knight Rider fan (along with having a crush on Knight Rider and KITT when i was 13) I LOVE this. Thank you UA-cam rabbit hole suggestion. Also, giving your dog the little thought bubbles is hilarious! I look forward to seeing part 2.
Perifractic you will make me say it again "where does he get those wonderful toys?" - Joker. Every time I think you've outdone yourself, you come up with yet another fascinating nostalgic trip down memory lane and even managed to bring it in to 2022. You’re amazing, keep at it! Love the show!
I put the scanner sound to play through the Boombox while I summon it, that’s about it as far as KITT mods. What you did to yours looks incredible though! You ACTUALLY made the yoke look fun.
Wow, back then, it was just a dream and a lot of special effects.
Today, we are -->
This is my favorite UA-cam video EVER! I was 12 when the show first aired in SA. Stunning yoke! Awesome woo woo. Don't care if I sound like a kid here... Great stuff
8:15 - Now this image brings back the memory of this one episode of Knight Rider where Michael is playing the _IntelliVision_ game "Auto Racing" on KITT's screen (while KITT is driving) - using an _Atari_ joystick!
Coincidentally just today played with my Intellivision some Auto Racing and Space Battle, which was also used in Knight Rider :) Bonnie and Michael played it, but called it "Space Cadet" in 1st season episode "Nobody Does It Better" :)
Don't see it as an exploding airbag, see it as an opportunity for Michael Knight plastic surgery. Complete the mod. :)
I spent an entire week bingeing knight rider a few weeks ago and thought the new Tesla Roster would make an amazing new KITT
Wow, he found the exact same road as in the original show at 1:28 ! That’s amazing! I see you put a link to the location in the description. Thanks!
Devon Miles:
Shall we drink to what is the start of...
Perifractic:
Of what?
Devon Miles:
One Man's dream
Perfect!
Brilliant!! I added a wireless doorbell in which you can add your own MP3 file.
Using handbrake I added the scanner sound along with ‘excuse me’.
With the doorbell button in the car and the speaker in the frunk, I can activate the sound and use as a pedestrian warning.
Oh my god, I had this whole idea of making a KITT Tesla... and someone pulled it off! Awesome!
Knight Rider historians would love this.
Thanks! They actually commented near the top comments :-D
I love how in the beginning of the video, the close captions say "engine revving" as the guy pulls off in a Tesla 😆
The lights are a really cool mod, but make sure you don't have it on while driving: in the USA it is illegal to have red lights on the front of a non-emergency vehicle while on a public road.
I was going to do this to my car about 20 years ago, until I researched the legality of it.
Here in the UK I had a PCB etched about 35 years ago, with a circuit made up by a guy at Glasgow University, the LED's were mounted in a piece of clear hosepipe,
tie wrapped onto the front grill and had the running lights on one of my black 2.8 injection Ford Capris, always got a pull here in Scotland by the old bill, never charged, all they ever wanted was to look at the car, all black and lowered with a full KAT body kit on it, rear electric venetian blinds inside, these were the days, I was 19 at the time :) Awesome job as always with the video :)
Wow, you did the intro sequence amazingly 😁 Even down to the font and everything! You got the sort of 80's pastiche of all the little mannerisms like doing the cool "aw shucks" gesture of acknowledgment to some unseen person out of camera shot as you lean nonchalantly against the car while wearing your shades and giving the Hollywood smile 😄
Very well done!
It's so staggering to know that even 40 years later people still talk about knightrider!!!! 😮😮😮😮
When I got to the bit where you'd fitted the scanner and did the remake of the Night Rider intro I literally got a huge nostalgia buzz. Amazing. Well done. Great video. I just subscribed.
Welcome!!
I'm guessing that is the road thats on the start of Knight Rider Peri's on, might need a Raleigh Chopper attachment rack lol
Perifractic is making my childhood dream come true. Now all that I need is a Tesla, the KITT stuff, and a driving license.
a driving licence (atleast in the us what i am told) is easy to do the tesla is a bit harder to obtain depending on your financial situation the kitt stuff on the other hand shouldnt be to expensive considering you probably already own a phone
@@SimonBauer7 A driving license costs several thousand bucks where I live, and my financial situation is more like tricycle (used) than Tesla.
If Knight Rider was made in 2022 KITT would most definitely be a Tesla!
Love your sense of humor and sense of adventure. Grew up watching Knight Rider. I'd be jealous but am happy a great fan like yourself found this kind of happiness. I also just watched your video where you got to sit in a real Kitt Car. So happy for ya bro! Cheers!
Thank you for your kind words! Means a lot 👍🕹️
Awesome video! especially as I also own a black Model 3, called KITT.
Next ideas - Black tinted Windows, tinted rear brake lights (if legal) and a full chrome delete, replacing the chrome with matt black 👌
Wow, this is so sick. I hope one day it'll be a new Knight Rider show.
Working on a car and not scraping your knuckles would not be right. Well done!
I can totally see what you meant with realizing that it's actually self driving. It looks so much more impressive just by not having a round steering wheel. It's so simple yet impressive.
Car manufacturers should have cars with non-round steering options for commercials. I bet it would increase sales just by having that.
Can't wait to see what else you are doing with that car now.
Love that introduction and matching the road scene 👍 also laughed a little too much at the "I'm not that stupid" montage at 16:20
Haha yeah I have to admit I laughed to after editing that bit and hitting play 😆 Glad you liked the intro. That was fun to shoot.
That KITT app is amazing! It’s saying things the real kitt would say! And it chimes in with comedic banter too😂
Wow. I loved night rider as a kid!. These tesla cars are amazing 😲😲
Damn dude, you have a whole production team working on that intro?!
And I have that exact same outfit as her!!
although it’s getting a bit tight, and the lipstick is a little over the top now that I’m a middle-age man. But it makes me feel pretty
I’m calling it now…
This will be the biggest electronics channel in few years.
Especially if you do more teardowns and troubleshooting/repair videos.
😁 Rock on🤘
This was a joyous video!
Fitting new airbag was like Pepper Potts fitting Tony Stark's, Chest Arc Reactor, featuring a palladium core
I had the kitt pedal car and I loved it as a kid and Knight Rider was my favorite show
I enjoyed this way more than i even thought I would. So much nostalgia brought back through this. Oh, and I hope the hand is OK now!
All better thanks!
This was bloody brilliant.
modern day "hot rodding" of sorts.Not every Tesla has these goodies!
One of my fav episodes you’ve done. I loved this show as a kid.
Hubcaps and trims (for the hubcaps) would be the next logical step, "Possibly Cobalt Black". in colour? (Darkening glass would also perhaps, so one can see out and not in - this might be illegal though). Also the opening of the doors automatically, and the back tailfin(s)? And - of course - a sliding sunroof! It is recommended that you DO NOT climb into the car when it is moving, however; obviously. (PCB reference in capital letters - in case you wondered why, LOL).
Imagine if Tesla actually made a model three knight rider edition that they would have the basic black in the actual scanner bar integrated into the fiberglass of the front bumper of the car and it has a voice assistant with William Daniels on it that would be so cool
Bravo sir 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Can't wait for part2 and see the finish product!
Lol I think that's awesome! But I gotta say your girl is awesome for being so cool and supportive of you doing this.
OMG, Elon should officially support KITT mods!
Frankly, I don't know why this hasn't existed from the moment self driving was considered at Tesla. KITT is still analogous for most people with the self-driving car concept.
Looking forward to part 2. All you are missing it seems. Is Michael Knight, the Hoff himself. Can't wait.
A surveillance scanner on the inside would be a great addition.😁
Wow wow wow you have taken me right back to my childhood. Thank you for this. I want to get my box set out and watch it all again.
Maybe Tesla should come with an official kit(t) ;) Very well done, likeed the conversation between Lady and KITT. :P
Especially if they could get it licensed to do it legally
You should always put blue locktite when putting the steering wheel back on, ask me how I know.
fantastic mods, Tesla def needs a "KITT" edition, Black with Tan Interior and the scanner ;) and KITT software that includes sound fonts for the car's sounds as well as KITT voice recognition and touch screen integration
If Tesla did that and only made 1000 they would sell out fast.
Nothing Can replace the Original Kitt
I'll bet when you were younger you NEVER imagined one day you would own something like K.I.T.T. in real life. Is your mind blown?
Came here by accident but TOTALLY enjoyed myself! You Sir, have yourself a new subscriber. Keep up the wonderful work and hope to see more of your projects!
Loved the audio mix on this, so many childhood memories
Brilliant video!!!! Knight Rider is still one of my all time favourite tv shows!
