Tesla Model 3/Y Ambient Lighting Update!

[@billshepherd1710]

Great job explaining this installation. You make it look easy with your full descriptions.

[@m3jazz]

Much appreciated!

Hi and thanks for your video. It was very useful in order to complete the process of installing all lights included in the Lightingbug deluxe kit. Regarding the door panel lights, I preferred to start from the back and make my way towards the doors especially to bring the cables through the rubber conduit between the main body and the doors. Inside the doors, once removed the big speaker, I decided to make a hole in the upper part of the plastic frame holding the big speaker in order to pass the cable coming from the inside of the car through the rubber conduit. My Tesla Y High Performance has finally the futuristic look that she deserves ( I have like you installed the carbon fiber covers for the central dashboard and the door panels ). Very happy about the look. This kit is the only one on the market that connects to the main electrical system of the car without relying on the cigarette plug inside the central console.

@@Fractal70 awesome news. Congratulations on the install 🙌🏽

[@GeoJoe1]

Great install video man. I just bought the full kit from Lighting Bug Tech and I think I used your code if I remember correct. I’ve got everything installed except the door lights. They are obviously the hardest part of the install so I’ve been hesitant but your video helps a lot.

[@m3jazz]

Hey! Congratulations! Glad to hear it. I am happy I could help

[@HT-sd4to]

Looks great!!! You are skilled.

[@m3jazz]

I appreciate the kind words!

[@DblSol]

Just got my Model Y LR. At first I thought taking off the door to install this lights was too much for me. Ive slowly hyped myself up that I can do this install. So I'm getting this kit and we will see how it goes.

[@m3jazz]

Hell yea!!!! Lets go. Go ahead and get that extra discount with the code M3Jazz. Keep me posted on your instal. Congratulations!

[@DblSol]

@@m3jazz So heres an update. After months of putting it off, I finally started installing the ambient lights. So far I got the dashboard, center console, and arm rest installed. Looks amazing. I think I'll do the seats soon and the door lights too. Im thinking of tinting my windows first before installing the door lights. Thanks again for your videos.

[@m3jazz]

@@DblSol hell yea!! Congratulations 🤘🏽

[@selphie99]

Nice and clear showing the steps, but what about the back 2 doors? are they the same way installation?

[@Skavatar789]

perfection.

[@m3jazz]

Many thanks!

[@Joshsmoove]

I love how easy he makes it look, pulling the wire through the door. It's not easy at all.

[@m3jazz]

Was definitely a difficult spot, glad you got it 🤘🏽

[@Joshsmoove]

@m3jazz I didn't, lol. I ended up tearing one of the lighting wires, so now I have to grab a whole new door kit.

[@Fractal70]

@@Joshsmoove It was very difficult for me as well. I used a metal hanger from the dry cleaner which, once you open it, it becomes a very long metal wire which is perfect to be pushed and pulled diligently through the difficult rubber conduit

[@chin9825]

Okay I was wondering where the rest of the install was at thanks 🙏

[@m3jazz]

No worries, I received this kit at a later date. That is why they are separate

[@SKULLVONKRUSH69]

Where’d you get those carbon fiber dash and door panels? They’re dope

[@m3jazz]

Thank you! From a company called Hills Made

[@kiddx6087]

Sorry if I missed it. What would you say the average install time is for the full kit with/without the door lights for a novice compared to an experienced person?

[@m3jazz]

I would say a 2-4 hrs.

[@kiddx6087]

@@m3jazz o wow. Is that with or without the doors?

[@m3jazz]

@@kiddx6087 i would say with around 4hrs

[@kiddx6087]

@@m3jazzawesome. Now to just work up the nerve and decide between laser kit or the other.

[@Meejistan]

Hey man this looks really great. I’m gonna get the full kit myself and return the existing one I haven’t installed yet. Question, does the door wires connect to the existing module install you did into the reserve plug? Or do the doors have their own separate module?

[@m3jazz]

Awesome! Congratulations, they connect into the original module.

[@robertyoung8615]

Hey folks I'm gonna help some of you out. I was absolutely about to give up on getting that wire through the cable gasket between the door and the car. Fishing it through would simply not work for me. I ended up liberally wrapping the cable in electrical tape and then pushing it through. You will have to get it started pushing your fingers through but once you reach the ridges in the gasket you can use them to push through the wire. I was ready to throw in the towel after 3 hours of this and then going about it this way got the wire through in 5 minutes. Good luck!

[@m3jazz]

@@robertyoung8615 many ways to get the job done. I’ve installed more than 10 of these kits fishing the wire through. Glad you figured it out though.

[@leutrimaliu2308]

Hey i got the 2024 deluxe kit and while installing i found out that i am missing the blue powersupply cable under the backseat ac vents, any idea where it could be?

[@m3jazz]

@@leutrimaliu2308 meaning it didn’t come in the set? The cable is gong to be black with white connectors

[@leutrimaliu2308]

When u open up the plastik under the ac vents there should be cables where u plug in the new ( from the kit) cable, in my tesla its empty i dont have any cables

[@leutrimaliu2308]

In your video 9:30 u can see the blue cable , i dont have that so i dont know where to plug my cables in

[@m3jazz]

@ it just gets plugged in to the oem cable in the back. Maybe they changed the oem color. 🤔

[@leutrimaliu2308]

@@m3jazz hmm, the thing is i dont have a cable there its just empty space, im gonna post a pic later maybe someone can help me

[@Sammy0003]

Looks real nice brother! I’ll b scared to do the install myself 😅 Let’s see it at night!

[@m3jazz]

Don’t be scared! You got this!

[@lightingbug-2023]

Thanks ❤

[@m3jazz]

Keep up the great work!

[@paularaujo5414]

Do they on with the car lights or how do you turn them on?

[@m3jazz]

They automatically turn on and off with the car. You can also turn them off via the app, but that is not necessary

[@rhuynh]

How do you run the wire out from behind speaker.... there are no gaps or holes?

[@m3jazz]

I ran it under the speaker trim

[@rhuynh]

@m3jazz so it doesn't lay flush and it's okay that it is crushed. That's what I ended up doing as I did not want to drill or cut. Hope it is fine.

[@m3jazz]

@@rhuynh exactly

[@Fractal70]

@@rhuynh After removing the speaker, I drilled a hole in the upper part of the plastic frame in order to push through the cable. I wanted the speaker to completely connect its rubber seal in order to minimize any kind of sound distortion/vibration

[@JeffDeWitt]

That's pretty cool, but I'm not taking my new Tesla apart!

[@m3jazz]

No worries there 🤘🏽

[@tonytre6404]

Your loss! These lights are 🔥 The night drive ambiance is awesome.

[@Joshsmoove]

Can you link your fishing tape?

[@m3jazz]

Its just some regular frog tape. I have linked it

[@Joshsmoove]

@m3jazz Sorry, i was referencing the orange wire used to push the lighting wire through the door tubing.

proper video name - how to consume battery even faster

True, but the consumption has to be minimal, barely noticeable. I'm sure driving with tires with low pressure has more impact than this update.
