Funny now it says on my about my car it says premium audio instead of partial premium audio lmfao so this kit definitely works still a very well crank it up an no crackling or anything. It can handle the max power next is a sub from NVX for my rwd model 3 2022
Thanks for the video. An experienced auto restoration guy and I did in 90 mins with beer.... Sound was amazingly improved. No problem with balance.
This the best video for this DIY install. My kit just arrived and it had no instructions or tool. So, this video will all I need to get it done Thanks for posting!
Did you finish the install? How do you like it so far?
@@BadiBanHD Yes. Once I figured out the cabling, it took about 1.5 hours. sounds good. worth the money.
@@Runtythestar i are
Thanks for a great helpful video
Awesome video. Thank you for creating it.
Thanks for the vid! Just about to try and follow it!
Just did this today with only the DIY cable/harness. Thanks Jim! I wish I would have seen your balance/fader video before I secured that back seatbelt panel. Great work
Thanks great video
Appreciate this! Just got mine in the mail seen their video, it was ok, but watched this once and it was all I needed. No trouble with the right and left maybe they sent you the wrong harness configuration. Did the test and left is left right is right. Took about 45 mins
Need a torxs fitting size 20 and comes with the puller tool so it was smooth! Thanks again!
Then now listening instead of at 75-80%
I’m listening at a maybe 40% because it is that much louder
It worked!!! Thanks a million mate :)
I ordered mine last weekend and thanks for this excellent install video. I can do this.
You’re welcome!
@@fatwajim had it installed and had the tech fix the fader cables like you said and in less than 1 hour I now have 6 additional speakers working. Thx for excellent video, my tech watched it before doing the install.
Will this kit work for 2023 model 3 Rwd?? Thanks
I'm saving this video.
I don't know Tesla doesn't just activate the 14 speakers. Given the price of the car this doesn't seem like it will be that much more expensive to do.
So just make the SR+ with all 14 speakers and make the Long Range Version 14 speakers plus the subwoofer.
Wish I would have known that I could just pull the rubber seal off the door to pop the trim back in easier! Thanks for that tip! I had issues with the cable (Version E) not reaching the driver side plug and I actually ran the wire under the driver carpet with a fish wire to do that. Nice work on the video!!!
Thank you!
Great video.. I plan to do this install myself this weekend ;) I would trade some info.. Get the Bonus module for the SR+ for rear seat heating, foglight and ambient lighting. Works slick. I got my foglight used and it took about an hour to swap them in place. The module took about 30 mins only because it's a PIA to get the connector off and on under the dash. Now you have all the features of the full premium interior :)
Thank you so much for making this video. We all owe you a beer
apparently Teslas latest update kinda brakes this, making the gps voice muffled (Also,they dont have it for sale anymore)
Just finished installing my DIY kit from Hansshow using this video as a guide…took me about one and a half hour to get this fixed. Great to have people going through the trouble of making these kind of guides! The kit it self is a minor investment with great result: far better audio experience. I might consider doing this all over again with addition of the extra subwoofer/amp!
Any problems after a while?
@@japveerbadwal7628 no, no problems at all, still very happy with this upgrade!
@@harrovw any problems when listening at high volume, such as amp going into protect mode or speakers turning off?
Would be interested to know as of now. Apparently, Tesla released an update this year that made this kit obsolete! Search for"Tesla Cracks Down on Audio Mods To Unlock Premium Audio Speakers in the Model 3 RWD". Not impressed Tesla@@harrovw
Also my balance worked fine so they must have addressed this.✌🏻
Great video just needs on thing make sure you disconnect power from 12v and under the rear passenger seat so you don't trigger fault codes or spark the computer
That’s what I was thinking too. The install kit manual tells you that as a VERY important step before installing anything.
Oops! Left that one out!
Thanks! This shows me that the speakers will never be a software upgrade considering there is missing hardware
Hi, thanks for taking the time to make such a great install video. It's the best one I've seen for the Hansshow kit. One question I had is for the driver side install, it seems like you popped the panels then just cut to running the cable from the passenger side to the driver side. I know you said "we're going to do the same thing" but is it literally the same? Did you plug in the front speakers, then run it along the side bottom trim to the rear passenger area to plug in the left rear speaker, on the driver side? Thanks.
Hello, the only connection to the rear speakers is in the right rear area. The only thing that happens on the driver’s side is in the video. I didn’t leave any install procedures out of the video. Thank you for watching!
@@fatwajim oh so the driver side only needs a connection from the front passenger (amp)? Also do you have a link to your favorite auto trim removal tools?
That last trim from the rear seat is a real pain to put back on especially if you have a seat cover . With this thing covered, it becomes wider and reduces the play.. real pain.. only because i have a back seat cover, i m not sure i want to hook the speaker harness for the back.. adding the hanssow will activate the 4 speakers in the front… which is plenty enough..
Finished! Well worth it. Sounds so much better. Thanks for the video. I found the first plug in point hard yo get out by everything else was pretty easy. If I can do it anyone can, trust me! 😂
I can’t get that first plug out to save my life!! Any tips on how?
I used this video 2yrs ago and had great success. But recently I lost sound in driver side door speakers (both doors). Any suggestions on where to look first? Thanks for keeping the video up.
You can swap the speaker wires on the rear deck. Having them flipped wrong will make the music inaccurate. Your call.
Thanks Jim. Well done, it help a lot.
Awesome video! Does this / could this affect any ability for warranty related issues?
Also, you have a video that goes over the External Speaker. I’m June 2019 - if I have the grill under the bumber, but no ext speaker, can I simply order the pedestrian warning speaker and install myself?
I suppose if you were having some audio related issues, Tesla could potential say it’s due to the cabling. If it were me, I would uninstall it and take it in to Tesla just so they don’t use that as an excuse.
I have a 2020 M3+ with a build date of 6/2020. So this has no rear speakers but I would still order the DIY kit for that year and model which comes with the rear harness attached already correct? The only difference I won't be using that rear harness ??
EDIT: Disregard all of the below, I figured it out (for anyone else who might be wondering): If you have a credit card or thin plastic squeegee (I had one from a chrome delete vinyl kit), slide it into the rearmost part of the panel by the seats, and then slide up to get it wedged into the top part of the panel (which is normally nearly impossible to separate from the plastic trim). Then start prying with a tool/fingers. As for the extra panel under the steering wheel, not necessary to remove if you follow Jim's steps here and just route the cable through the carpet. The official tutorial video shows them removing it for some reason.
(Original comment:)
13:36 I cannot, for the life of me, get these damn carpeted side panels off. !@#$%
Any tips aside from the special prier tool you have? I'm trying to use the orange one that came with the Hansshow kit, but it's just not enough force :(
Also - did you have to take off the entire underside panel beneath the steering wheel? I got the one with the footwell light plug easily, but Hansshow's official tutorial shows them somehow managing to wriggle off the rest of the panel, and I cannot get that panel off for the life of me either! Sigh...
How is it holding up? Is the SR+ stock amp able to handle the additional speaker load? Does it work at 100% volume?
It works well. I don’t listen to my music loud, so I have not turned the volume up to the Max.
Hi Jim, Not sure if this question was asked before, but in Hansshow's PDF instructions they say to disconnect the negative pole of 12V power supply at the frunk, and disconnect the high-voltage gray plug under the right side of the rear seat - otherwise there's a risk of fault codes.
In your video, you're not doing these steps. Is disconnecting these really necessary?
Hello, I’m not sure. At the time of video, that wasn’t mentioned in the instructions. It sounds like things have changed and/or Hansshow is being precautious. I would defer to the instructions then. Thanks!
I disconnected power under the rear seat but didnt at the frunk. Im getting error codes saying I need to replace the 12v battery. Should I have disconnected the frunk as well?
@@ibrahim795 yes you should disconnect both power sources
What year model 3 is that? I understand they came out with a new kit for the 2021 due to its differences. I have a 2021 so I'm trying to figure out if it's worth it. Thanks!
Jim are you taking customers for the Hanshow products installation?
Anyone tried this on 2020 SR (not SR+)?
hello mate, the tool you are using to pull out those screws, where did you get that? Could you please share a link..
Hi,
I have an SR + from March 2020, are there any HP on the rear panels, I tried to take a look but it's complicated to see something tiring inside 😉
EDIT: Just tested again with strong light, through my rear window I feel like I see an HP or at least what looks like it.
I have extra little piece that came out part no. 1457039 when I pulled the passenger side two trim pieces out any insight ?
I’ve made the decision to reverse my Hansshow “upgrade”. It sounds horrible. It makes my ears bleed. No matter how I EQ it, I can’t make the low end balance out the high end.
Followed your video exactly but my tear speakers are. It working. I took a closure look at the wires in your video and it seems my rear speakers are not wired to the connection. There is only 2 wires leading to the speakers in the back(it might be for something else) while your wires show at least 4. Any advice?
Hello, if you only have two wires at that connection, you do not have rear speakers in the parcel shelf. SR+ vehicles made after 3/20 do not have speakers in the parcel shelf anymore.
Does the (real) tesla speaker upgrade have extra amps or will this lower the ohms and burn out the built in amp?
Thank you for posting this. I did the install based on this video. I only have one issue: the rear passenger piece near the seat where the wires are, I cannot get that square plastic thing out of the car frame. I sort of put it all back together but there is a small clip that broke inside that square. :(
Hello, you need a small flat head screw driver or a pick to get it out. It’s clipped in on the top and the bottom of the square hole.
I'm in North Georgia. You didn't put a link to contact you so you could install it for me...
Hello! My email address is in the description: thedashcameraman@gmail.com
Quick (non-electrical guy) question, will the wires catch fire if it’s incorrectly installed?
No
I followed the video minute by minute for the audio upgrade.. I realized that the passenger speaker clip broke apart while unclipping it. Part of the clip is lodged inside the speaker insert. Its used to tell the driver when the light turns green from red. Is this something that is possible to fix??
It’s just positive and negative. There are a bunch of ways - solder, make your own new connector
I have a post Feb 2020 without the rear deck speakers and only plan on activating the 4 front speakers. Do I still need to run that cable to the back or is that exclusively to activate the rear deck speakers?
Hello, as far as I know the cable that gets run to the rear is to only activate the rear speakers. Thanks for watching!
So basically this gives you the premium sound package if you didn't opt for it? I have a long range and premium sound. Wondering if this kit is any use to me.
Hello, yea this kit would be of no use to you. It gives you premium-like sound minus the bass because of the lack of a sub woofer.
@@fatwajim alright thanks. 👍 looking for a way to install an additional Amp and Sub.
@@petesake threw a code trying to hook up an amp. Would not recommend that. For power, I used the terminal under the seat. Code said, low voltage battery reduced. Some features may not be available. Something like that.
Where’s the connect the power cable part of the installation ?
This kit does not have a power cable connection. The kits with the added subwoofer do.
What’s your charge for kit and installation?
Can a software upgrade delete or shut off these speakers?
Hello, how do I locate a Hansshow installer in Phoenix?
Hi, I just installed my kit, everything works, however, what did you do with the purple and black cable that was plugged in (teewter)?
If I remember correctly, I just left it unplugged.
@@fatwajim ok thank's
Ok thank's
since the installation, I have a problem, an error message from the ecall that I cannot make disappear despite several hard reboots
Anthony D did you fix the problem?
@@everythingtesla8833 Yes the time is when water cable corrected the problem. No more error messages and now I have a great sound in my sr +
@@TTK22_TESLA yay! How long did shipping take for you? I just ordered mine. This one prevents any stress to OEM amp right? And how is the music at high volumes?
Does the car still supercharge and update after installation?
Yes to both.
With this harness can you add a amp and sub later? Is this the same harness that comes with the premium kit?
No, this harness is different than the premium kit. Nothing can be added to this harness.
@@fatwajim thanks for the video Jim I ordered the A ver that comes with the sub and built in amp will I have to have power to the sub from the power terminal end
@@mojito5606 I have not seen the installation instructions for Version A, but it is highly likely that you will have to connect to a 12 volt power source and ground.
So after feb 2020 it’s says 4 speakers? I have an April build so does that mean the 2 In the rear are gone but 4 in front are still active?
Yes, if you have an April 2020 build, the parcel shelf speakers are missing. So this kit would only active the 4 remaining front speakers.
They do sell other kits that include the rear parcel shelf speakers.
Hmmmm! I performed this installation and noticed all audio is being cutoff when listening over 15+ minutes with the volume on high. Only way to fix is by restarting system with both buttons. Has anyone experienced this?????
Does this work for 2022 Tesla Model 3 with AMD Ryzen?
Do you need to disconnect the battery or is turning it off good enough?
I just powered the vehicle down.
Hi there. Thank you for such a detailed video. Can doing this cause potential harm to the OEM amplifier? Are you able to listen at full volumes? Any reduction in bass in the door woofers?
According to Hansshow, there is no harm to the factory amp. I don’t listen at full volume so I can’t speak to that. I personally have not noticed a reduction in bass from the door woofers. Thanks
Hi Jim,
Great video!! I have a June 2020 model 3 SR+ if I get the DIY kit will all the speakers get activated and do I also have the rear deck speakers because my car has two grills are those even speakers? If not should I even install the back cable if I don't have speakers on the rear deck? thanks
I got an error after installing this. Something with UI_43 and it won't go away from the screen. Late 2020 SR+
Make sure that all your connections are seated all the way.
@@fatwajim will check again, thanks. Car runs and drives fine. Charging wasnt an issue either.
I am very interested in getting this done. Do you feel the bass weakened after the install or do you feel the mid woofers in the door sound the same. I want the sub but Ive been reading in the forums that the bass isnt that good.
I think that the bass is about the same. To me, the issue with the kits that include the sub and the DSP is the amount of fiddling that you have to do to get the system to sound good. After installing those, you have to upgrade the firmware, change speaker settings to get the balance correct, etc.
@@fatwajim you are 100% correct.. I also feel the bass in the car now is very good so that makes me feel comfortable that it’s still the same. I will probably just buy the kit you did and call it a day. Hopefully the wires are correct as far as the fading lol
@@JamesScottJr if the wires aren’t correct, checkout my latest video that goes over fixing that issue :)
@@fatwajim I saw it... hence the reason I said that comment. Thank you for that video
@@fatwajim Got installed. BIG difference. Bass is still there but just a fuller sound. Your video made me feel comfortable. Thank you
Going to give the bastard a go,as I only have the SR + and speakers are good but Elon is ripping me off by not giving me all the speakers.
Hi Jim, what year is ur model 3? I heard this kit is not compatible with the refreshed 2021, do yku know if that's true
Mine was produced in May ‘19 so I already have the rear speakers in the deck. I *think* from Feb 2020 on they stopped putting the speakers back there. Hansshow does sell an audio kit that includes the rear parcel shelf speakers and a subwoofer.
I’m in Atlanta. How much will you charge me to install this? I have the wire kit
Goodvideo.Thanks
Same!!!
Quick question i just recieved my kit i own a 2020 sr+ with rear deck speakers as an autherized installer hopefully you can help me. Is the wiring harness for the 2018-2020 diffrent from the 2021+. I think they sent me a 2021+ kit as it came with additional speakers and a wire on the harness labeled rear surround. I have messaged hansshow but am awaiting a response. Thanks.
Would the install process for the 2021 DIY kit be the same as this?
Maybe, you have the rear speakers. I have a late build (Dec of 21) and Tesla didn’t install the rear speakers. When I ordered the DIY kit the harness did not include wires to activate the rear speakers.
I would be upset that the speakers are reversed. You paid money and the product is obviously flawed. Otherwise, thank you for the great video, I will definitely be doing this with my SR+
Does anyone know if the refresh 2021's have the rear speakers?
Yes they do
My model 3 SR+ was picked up in June. It does not have the rear speakers. I crawled into the trunk and where the speakers should be is metal with no wires near it. Have seen other videos where people cut through the deck material to install speakers.
@@dchow007 How did you push the 2 pins on the side? I have issue of loud noise coming out of the speaker, and thinking it could be due to vibration of the 2 pins plug into the connector in 2021 related. I now used the t-tap to splice the wire but the issue did not improve.
Does this work with the 2021 model 3?
Hello, sorry, it looks like it does not - as per Hansshow’s website.
You will lose bottom end with speakers being out of phase with each other.
