There are two switches that are identical. One for the passengers up front and also one in the rear. We don’t even have to completely open it as you can push the button again and it will stop at your desired spot. The motor noise is super quiet when in operation and the premium fabric has 5 layers to block out the UV rays. Installation took me about 35 minutes but if you have a friend to help you install this, I’m sure it will take only 15 minutes.
Now because this item is not collapsable the shipping box is going to be quite large. Once you get it out of the box this is what it looks like along with the included tools you’ll need. There’s only one cable that connects in the rear of the model y. It’s super easy to locate and you will not have to tear up the entire back of your car to find the plug. There are two brackets that will go in the front of the sunroof along with a couple screws to affix the brackets. They also provide a screwdriver should you need one. Before placing this in your tesla be sure to apply this felt tape over the front of this bracket. I’m not sure why they could not just affix this ahead of time but it so we do not see this silver bar on top. Once you have this on, puncture the two screw holes on both sides so we can easily tighten these screws later on. Place this through the back of the car with the motor side at the end of the tesla. Next take the included cord that came with the kit and pull back just a little bit of the rubber seal so we can grab the cord we need to bypass this plug. Connect the cords to the appropriate plug and then place this back behind the fabric wall. Continue to run the cod up the side placing it behind the plastic wall and replace the rubber seal back to its original place. Use your included pry tool to ensure the rubber seal is over the plastic. I went ahead and just randomly placed the brackets in the front between the glass and the liner as I will adjust them later to fit the sunshade.
Now if you are on your own like me, you may want to find something to hold half of this up to help you run the cord between the back liner. I just used my work stool and a box while the front part is held up by the headrests. Next I just used the included electrical tape to wrap it around the end of the connection with a long zip tie to feed it through the back head liner. On the back side you will be able to pull down the fabric panel and look for that wire and feed it through. Finally connect the two cords as you will hear it click into place. Neatly tuck in the rest of the wire behind the rubber seal and panels. Use your pry tool to place back the rubber seal over the top of the fabric. Before I installed this to the sunroof I wanted to make sure it worked by pressing on the open button and sure enough it works just great.
The back portion of the sunshade slides over the top of the back headliner with the already built in clips. Just slide it into place as this should fit perfectly to the shape of the back ceiling.
We are in the final stretch here as we just have to screw in the front panel to those brackets we placed earlier. Just line up the hole with the bracket and use the included magnetic screwdriver to affix this into place.
And that’s it for the install, as we can see the back button works by simply pushing on the forward button and letting the shade auto close. We can also tap the same button again and it will stop in your desired spot. Pushing the button again will close it all the way. I have to say, I’ve installed quite a few different types of sunshades and this one by far has been the best one. It is so easy now to simply open and close the shade when you want to. It looks and feels like and OEM sunshade and I wish tesla would offer this on all the Model Ys. What do you guys think?
