Easy $20 Tesla Frunk Mod - Automatic Frunk Lift Installation!

[@marcustam3767]

Just installed it on my 2024 model 3 and it works amazingly well!

[@mike330i]

Also add the Funk power soft close. That'll be sweet.

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

I was looking for that, do you have a specific one you recommend?

[@Ughthisagain]

@@ThroughTheEyesOfJesusI used tylards it’s super quite took 15min to install.

[@phat_gunpla_etc]

cool! now you gotta create a hack to auto close the frunk?

[@8JonT]

The link you have said its for a jeep... Just want to confirm its correct because i want to do it as well

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

It does say that it’s for a jeep, but those are the same ones that I used in the video. I can confirm that they work on model 3 and model Y up to the year 2021.

[@-DA3]

Maybe just use one?

[@Twoideas915]

That’s worth a test

[@zx7rou812]

What's the actual part number? Year? There's multiple listed for JGC's.

[@AlanTrades]

Great ideA! PERHAPS GETTING A NOT SO STRONG STRUT WILL ALLOW IT TO NOT OPEN SO VIOLENTLY? ANY LIGHTER ONES YOJ RECCOMMEND?

[@VolatilityTrading27]

I bought these after watching this without checking my frunk. My 2024 model Y long range doesn’t have those existing arms but metal brackets instead. Blah.

[@M3NTALMAGIC]

Cool-but is it secure when driving, as u said it’s thinner than original

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

It’s been holding just fine.

[@choco-latte608]

The hood struts should have nothing to do with the security of the hood driving, That's all on the Latch system

[@jhughesca5]

So what happens when the latch fails while driving?

[@MarcelHVAC]

Probably have to order a new winshield

[@JadanDuffin127]

Thought the exact same thing. Will make for a great horror story as you lay in the hospital in a full body cast.

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

I will do an update video showing what happens when it fails while driving.

[@mikemike1001zz]

The hood will pop wide open just like that while driving with or without this modification if the latch fail.

[@lsmeteor4652]

It would mostly likely do the same thing on any car.

[@Shadow8477]

Can I also fit it on my 2024 model Y?

[@wannaberossi]

There is no shipping to the Netherlands😢

[@frankcoffey]

Do these work with the Model Y?

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

2017-2021 it should

[@marcustam3767]

Have you noticed any flexing on the hood?

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

Not at all, I’ve actually had it for a few weeks now and uploaded a short update video on it

[@marcustam3767]

@@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus That’s good to hear I just ordered them! Thanks!

[@_AI_Takeover]

Anyone know which to use on model y

[@JC-zk7dj]

coool, might get that

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

I’ve had them installed for a few weeks now. It gets slightly easier to close over time.

[@the52assassin]

@@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus Have you noticed any water in the frunk when you wash the car? Genuinely curios about that

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

So far there hasn’t been any water. It’s been raining a lot this week and it’s been dry inside.

@tteoj I’ve got a ‘23 model S plaid. Any idea if these struts would work on my car or how I’d find ones like these that do?

[@kyleu]

Will this work for Model Y?

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

Yes

[@FluxJester]

will it work with my Model Y?

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

Yes it will

[@griff3961]

You may want to check before buying. My 2020 Model Y does not use lifts like shown in this video, so unfortunately it will not work for those vehicles. Since the 3/Y share a lot of parts, it is likely that some refreshed versions of the Model Y might be able to use this part.

[@r.schmalzried7315]

Crap, I’ve been looking at these thinking what a great fix. My MY doesn’t use the struts either. I don’t want to mod it with the power frunk. Dang!

[@applenewbee]

i1Tesla?

[@marcustam3767]

Will it work for 2024 model 3?

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

Isn’t the 2024 already automatic?

[@GeneralDeplorable]

So just to confirm it shows fitment for a jeep grand cherokee? And it works?

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

Yes it is working great.

[@GeneralDeplorable]

@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus awesome! Will pick some up. I did the soft close kit and it's great 👍

[@8JonT]

​@@GeneralDeplorable what's the soft close kit? Can you please post link?

[@barryyoung3861]

So what is the actual brand name?

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

Strongarm: it says it’s for a Jeep grand Cherokee, but I can confirm it does work for the Tesla model 3 from 2017-2021

[@xghostyxjokerx]

Need for my 2023 model y link... 🙏

[@basictimes4554]

Sorry m8 but having a seat covers is like keeping your girlfriend in perfect condition for the next guy.

[@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus]

Well for me white seats are pretty much a no go. My wife and I do random construction projects and get pretty dirty sometimes.

[@basictimes4554]

@@ThroughTheEyesOfJesus Use it and abuse it! White upholstery is tougher than you think, and super easy to clean! :)

Nah, ill keep auto close, and not have the feunk open when someone who hates tesla looks at it
