This week in our Tesla DIY Series, we take apart the dash of our Model 3, removing our previous Tesla Smart Dash for an upgrade to an Apple Car Play enabled Smart Instrument cluster from Tsportline. The MSX-CP (which stands for Model S and X CarPlay) was designed to offer nearly all features you'd find in the new Model S and X dash, plus more.

[@BlueCollarEV]

I stopped by there last week when I seen the lifted Model Y with the brush guard. I talked to Eric and let him drive my Lightning and will be headed back there to get some work done to it. Great group of people at the store. I showed my wife the screen and now she wants one. Thanks for making videos in Georgia.

[@BlueCollarEV]

lol I forgot about this post. Now we have the white version on their offroad Model Y. My wife loves it now.

[@jmattos]

I love how there's an option for basically everyone for the instrument cluster. I started with the MSX like you and I have the infotainment madness on order!!

[@JasonValentineFL]

Very cool. I have a feeling I'm going to want something like this in the Cybertruck.

[@mrallelectriccarlunacy]

That's a very nice install. Great work. They should include this exact video on their site.

[@ItsKimJava]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed.

[@TSportline]

We agree - an easy to follow intro and install 👍🏻

[@KineticEV]

It's not bad. While I want Tesla to have many of these features this is a decent work around. It needs it's own LTE connection. THis way you do it all from the unit. But this is still a cool unit.

[@victorvek5227]

First time I’m seeing an accessory like this… it handles one of the biggest objections to prospective Tesla owners. Sweet job!

[@EVtripper]

Cool! My dad would love a Model 3 or Y if it had an instrument cluster in front of the wheel.

[@mincooper]

That screen and the previous one need to have a lovechild together. Good looks of the previous one plus brains of the new one.

[@dunggg]

There’s user report on Tesla forums saying these kind of mod cause their car to shut down after Tesla OTA. And also good luck explaining it to Tesla for your warranty work. I’ll just get a Mage Safe phone mount for the dash and call it a day.

[@im4udevco]

Look at you Kim. Is Kim’s Garage next? Great video and it’s good to see theses options for Tesla aftermarket displays.

[@warrior15r]

@Kim Java, You should try magic eraser on that shiny model 3 steering wheel. Lightly. It’ll look factory matte new again. 😉

[@paulz7716]

Looks great but in EU, when I asked Tesla about even wrapping the car (with a colour vinyl wrap), they told me if the cameras and sensors are disconnected outside of their official service, the onboard computer will record that 'event' and it may void parts of your warranty if anything happens - like errors related to autopilot, etc. So what you're doing, at least in EU, will certainly void the warranty. Perhaps it's different in the U.S. but I would triple check.

[@redzombi2k]

The biggest issue with these for me is they block the center air vents

[@ItsKimJava]

They had three options , there’s a smaller one that doesn’t interact with vents.

[@TheMelbournelad]

Always a compromise. Give and take

[@TheDrewPeters]

One thing missing on that is a simple HUD at the back of that small screen. Navi arrows + speed HUD would be 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@peter_belanger]

So great, I love that we now have an option. I hope that Tesla stops bing stubborn and just ads CarPlay. Thanks for sharing.

Finally aftermarket parts to make a Tesla look less ugly

[@suburbanTrick]

Nice vid, the lack if an instrument cluster was the reason why I didn't get a model 3. Couldn't wrap my head around a 50k vehicle and no instrument where I'd expect to see them

[@gnosis7662]

I totally agree! The lack of an instrument panel if front of the driver makes no sense and is actually a safety hazard. With this hack, Model 3 or Y are back on the table!

[@Mark1Mach2]

Couldn't agree more

[@SHOTTYTV]

They have a newer version of that screen you guys are installing that has Way thinner bezels and has more features . ❤love your tesla videos by the way!!! Currently building my tesla right now!! Customized crazzzyyyyyy

[@shamil454]

I would like to see HUD in a Tesla. Is that technically possible?

[@garydmercer]

I have car play in my 2020 Subaru Forester. Love it. Works so well. No issues. I was going to buy a Tesla, but decided not to because it doesn't support car play. This changes everything.

[@kkaalaas]

does this effect the warranty? love your videos!

[@ItsKimJava]

No it doesn’t

[@The._.Truth-.-]

Would be nice if it included a remote garage opener.

[@pvman2]

Nice!! And your teaser at the end was SO SWEET!!!

[@user-hp1gn5mg7c]

Wish someone made a HUD, preferred that over any extra display.

[@AlexPerrucci]

Awesome job on this edit y'all!

[@ItsKimJava]

Thank you!!

[@TSportline]

Amazing work by DIY Kim! Informational, instructional, and a fun time 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@MarkEsh1015]

Do you know if adding this does anything to the warranty?

[@calanprc3]

Great upgrade!! I will be getting the MSX Pro dashboard cluster!!!

[@AchillesWrath1]

I actually like the look of the MSX-Pro Driver LCD better. It looks like something that would be more factory and not another tablet that sticks up.

[@grantc8353]

Cool! I love how quick and modular it all was but I’m not sure if that screams cool or cheap in teslas behalf.

[@WestCoastChicano]

Love the new intro. Love intros. They add just a small touch of professionalism. I wish more fantastic creators would use them. Gr8 vid as usual, 🚙 🇺🇸 🌺

[@Yanquetino]

Oh-ho! We knew it was inevitable that someone would leapfrog Tesla's limitations. It seems like it would be a bit difficult to access that binnacle behind the wheel, but I bet you'll really love the added functions and features. I only wish third-party programmers could also put the kibosh on the *&^%$#@! phantom braking, ping-ponging between lanes, paranoid mergers. You're more patient and handy than I am, Kim! Can't believe you didn't break a nail! 👏

[@WheezyLex]

Ping-ponging between lanes and paranoid mergers? I haven’t had these issues with FSD Beta so far. Looking forward to version 11, regardless. What do you mean by ping longing between lanes?

[@Yanquetino]

@@WheezyLex Lucky you.

[@jeffbrent]

She says.. “It’s pretty easy”…. Proceeds to have that guy walk her thru EVERY step, wire, connection….. 😂

[@kqschwarz]

Great video and looks like a great product, but I have one concern and one question. The concern is placing a touchscreen interface behind the steering wheel seems not only inconvenient, but also a serious safety hazard (losing control of the vehicle while reaching around to press buttons). If there was a remote control wheel, like iDrive on BMW, that would solve the problem. The question is whether CarPlay maps will initiate pre-conditioning of the battery when on trips. If not, the one will still need to program Tesla Maps in the usual way and it will invalidate most benefits of using Apple Maps or other navigational programs. Just my 2-cents...

[@ItsKimJava]

Can also use the scroll wheels to navigate the screen

[@mocheen4837]

You might be able to ask Siri to perform functions as well.

[@os2baba]

Can I use the right button to make it a "OK Google" button on Android Auto? For road trips you'd need a combo of Tesla Maps and Google Maps. For round town, just use Google Maps. No need for Tesla maps or preconditioning.

[@troublelessone7999]

what about that monthly internet data connection subscription? Can you now use your mobile phone for that connection instead of using the Tesla subscription?

[@os2baba]

Do you mean premier connectivity? Just use your phone as a Hotspot.

[@jettaboi2k]

This video was well done 🙌

[@tomwillis7332]

I noticed the PSI was not displaying. Were you able to get that to work?

[@explor360]

Where did you get the wood grain trim??

[@budd2482]

Great video! Did you feel that this blocked airflow from the vents?

[@ItsKimJava]

A little bit, but they do have smaller screens with no impact to ventilation

[@rabeahkarram9689]

Finally a high value woman showing some cool Tesla enhancements not wearing a bikini. Nice work. Finally quality high value woman. Nice to see : )

[@BoyangSun]

Model Y owner here is this is COOL! gonna get one!

[@redgeciccone8218]

Does this void the warranty ? if not then we can go back to Tesla for car inspection routine without any problem right ?

[@noah.creative]

your so hands on i love it tf when i buy a tesla im buying all these mods x

[@thorddespace2773]

The fine with Tesla's, it makes mechanics of everybody ;-)

[@super_tomtendo]

The fact that something like this even exist shows the problem Tesla has by not including a basic need for cars.

[@miami3863]

I prefer teslas infotainment setup over CarPlay! However I can’t say the same for Rivian. Rivian’s OS is in bad shape right now and could seriously use CarPlay. I would definitely get this kind of mod for Rivian.

[@rono33]

Another nice product install by Kim 🎉. BTW PPL,Tesla DOES add a 2nd aux display, but only on S and X. Shameful fact for Elon is: that while Tesla has the #1 highest profit margins per car of all carmakers bar none, (over $15,000 per model 3 or Y vs next highest in industry which is Toyota’s margin of 2,500) Elon is too cheap to put a 2nd aux display even on that wide margin, UNLESS you pay him over a hundred thousand dollars on an X or S which have even HIGHER profit margins because they don’t cost Tesla much more to make than a Y. (There have been detailed teardown studies on this) So If you “only” spend 50-60k on a 3 or Y then Elon snubs his nose at you, even though those 3 & Y models still profit more than 6 times more than any other car maker. #greed. But thank goodness there are people like KIm to show us a better way :P

[@wdbldr67]

The 2nd display is not needed.

[@PatStellato]

How hard is it to navigate the touchscreen while driving? That's my only concern. It looks great.

[@ItsKimJava]

You can also use scroll Wheels on steering wheel.

[@cheesun124]

shouldn't have to do this on a $60K + vehicle, but I get it.

[@johnmshaw49]

Why not. It looks awesome!

[@MrBecks110]

It’s $43K + and it’s just a nice gadget, but I drive 3-6 hours every day and don’t need it

[@killkiss_son]

The Tesla are +40k not 60... And you don't have to do it 😐 you just can.

[@1yaz]

​@@johnmshaw49 guessing OP meant that it should be included. If the car had an instrument cluster behind the wheel then you would not have to resort to DIY solutions

[@joemamauwu]

@@1yaz I was hoping I was not the only one.

[@mincooper]

Does this screen also only have a blue car graphic like the one you removed or can it be actually matched to the factory silver color?

[@ItsKimJava]

No, it matches to your car color automatically. Only the silver color is not a match as that color was long discontinued.

[@wrohr15309]

They need to create a monitor for the passenger that connects to the games. So the passenger has something to do.

[@GaryCruzDotCom]

Doesn't the latest Tesla update support Airplay natively?

[@RoxyThePup]

I ordered my Model Y performance in late 2021 and took it on 1/19/22. I’ve had so many window issues and took it to service so many times. They all said they don’t see anything wrong. Fast forward to 1/19/23. All 4 of my windows went down on its own 3x from 6pm to 11pm for about 7 inches and it was hailing & raining that particular day. The next morning I woke up the car was severely water damaged. Took it to Tesla and they had to replace my passenger seat and my door sensor. I told them I shouldn’t have to take back a car with water damage due to a system glitch. Tesla customer service even admitted to this glitch happening to quite a few cars for the last 3 weeks. I am now requesting a buy back but they said it’s not promised and it can take 1-2 months. So now I am going to file it thru the State Attorney General. I’m not saying this will happen to everyone but the excruciating headaches that I’ve had to go thru has been one that I don’t want to wish upon anyone.

[@TheSun_89]

I get your frustration…but what does your comment have anything to do with this video?

[@JIMMY_NEMESIS]

Got myself the little mini one... perfect, the one with carplay is just not practical touching it with the wheel in the way... just a question of time that we will be able to get more apps like Waze or others

[@latitudeash]

We all know you would want the tech display 😂🤣

[@teslapool3165]

Yep am getting it asap! Thanks Kim😊

[@serendipity-108]

Does this have blind spot monitoring like Teslogic? Where it flashes red if you put on turn signal with someone next to you

[@MbT379]

[@lindseyhatfield9017]

So well done, great review and instruction Kim !

[@AdarshGupta-be8gf]

If I go for a Tesla, I wouldn’t be inclined to mess around with the simplicity / design integrity of the car. It just wouldn’t gel.

[@os2baba]

I'll take function over form any day. Not having AA in the car was a very very serious ding. The only reason I purchased the M3 was because it's my wife's car and she can live without it.

[@Boltbacker83]

I mean, had you not had a professional installation guy with you im pretty sure this would have taken a LOT longer lol. This isnt a minor install.

[@ItsKimJava]

They definitely helped, but this was a pretty straight forward and plug and play install. They have a detailed install video on their website but if I can do it, anyone can. 😆

[@caffeinatedfunctionality]

Seriously hope they make something like this for the cybertruck

[@eltigreplacoso2188]

[@bmhsonic]

Hey Kim, can you reach out to your friends at T sportline and have them release a fix for this already?! The latest Tesla update broke mine and it's always showing 100% state of charge on my battery now, and the mileage is totally wrong. It's been like this for weeks. 😞

[@ItsKimJava]

Just got confirmation from our contact, they are working on this update and say it’ll be releasing soon. It takes some time to refine they say but it’s almost ready to roll out!

[@bmhsonic]

@@ItsKimJava if you could reply here with a link to the update once it's available I'd appreciate it thanks

[@MasterZhao]

So 1 question is , does this void the warranty?

[@Rose-re9tn]

Did you change your dashboard from white to the wood finish? If so, where did you buy the wood dash from?

[@ItsKimJava]

@@Rose-re9tn no, was originally wood. The white was part of another mod linked in the description.

[@ItsKimJava]

​@@MasterZhao No it does not. There's a law that protects aftermarket mods from voiding warranty. It would only void warranty if Tesla could prove that the issue you are trying to fix was directly related to your dash upgrade. Which is fully reversible and not permanent tbh.

[@dartchef6847]

It will deffinelty void warranty, I would recommend contacting Tesla before doing any changes

[@sigma682]

I think at this point I’d rather see someone develop a HUD for Teslas.

[@MrEndocytosis]

Was that Pastor Bobby from Cobra Kai that helped with the install? Nice side hustle he’s got going.

[@jeffkoeningsberg2127]

I watched another video similar to this but they stated that depending on the chip in the car, is how you install it.

[@SCGMLB]

Looking at the display that they showed, it had the car's speed listed as mp/h instead of mph. I'm guessing that whomever designed it must have based it on how the abbreviation for kilometres per hour is km/h and somehow thought that the miles per hour was mp/h instead of mph.

[@Crunch_dGH]

Did I miss the yoke video? What about the HUD that “hovers” in a transparency on line of sight?

[@oleksiykobernik6626]

Kim makes me buy Tesla 3 :)

[@tomcramer1450]

Thanks for the video. I've been wanting one of these for my Model Y and this looks good. I'm confused though - how does the voice command button change? I see that you have to press a button to talk to siri - when you press the tesla voice button, does it still open up navigation and other commands? Do you have to do a lot of stuff on your phone first? That would seem to be a pain. I use Sirius and bluetooth a lot. I wonder if I could use a voice command on the new device to change stations? Thanks for any info. Really enjoy your videos

[@ItsKimJava]

Haven’t tried to tune different stations with voice commands but I know you can also use the scroll wheels to access features on the screen if you prefer. I typically keep everything on car play and just facilitate through my phone rather than the touch screen.

[@musk-eteer9898]

[@NaughtyGoatFarm]

It's disappointing that tesla doesn't have Android auto and Apple car play as standard

[@AhmetMurati]

[@R2X2Z]

Interested in doing this on my Model Y. Can you please comment on the air flow/vent?

[@ItsKimJava]

Can’t tell a difference in the winter, but it may have some impact on direct flow in the warmer months. I know that Brian at Tsportline mentioned they offer a smaller footprint version with no impact to airflow which we briefly showed in the start of the video.

[@smalls7446]

Would be nice if they have vent flow through the unit. Great video BTW!

[@otohudak5675]

I find these modifications of Tesla cars funny. It's like my cheap Ender 3 printer, I also gradually upgraded it to the Prusa MK3S+ level. But I saved money that way and that makes sense. It would be better for you to buy a car from another manufacturer that does not need similar upgrades.

[@mhill2468]
