I haven't purchased this kit as Im still waiting to pick up my model Y later this week but I wanted to see a tutorial on how to install these powered frunks and let me tell you, you do an amazing job at explaining things. I wish more people explained things the way you do. no annoying music or bad angles. Great job sir!
Thanks so much 😊
Sir, this is the BEST video available for installing the V5. The others out there are a freaking disaster! Thank you for the clear, elegant instructions and excellent video quality and lighting. I was stuck until watching your video. Great job!
Thanks so much 😊
Have to agree with the rest of the posters. This is the BEST tutorial on this. Great work. I have the power frunk for mine, but have been waiting to install it as I was unsure about a few things but your video explains and shows everything very clearly. Thank-you
Thanks so much 😊
Adding another BEST one comment. There are very few good tutorials or instructions for this kit. I searched far and wide finding this one is the shiznit for clarity and conciseness. Also loved the extra bonus showing the clever methods used to get some of the difficult shots.
Thanks so much 😊
I have to agree...the BEST video on installing this product! I've watched many of them and your ability to capture the close ups of the strut connections is awesome! I already have the product, I just need the car, LOL. BTW, I got the blue MY so I really like your video just for that reason :).
Glad it was helpful 👍🏻
Excellent step by step video with awesome camera angle. Thank you! Now, I feel more confident installing one.
Thanks so much 😊
This might be the single greatest mechanics tutorial on the internet. The subject matter is cool and thanks for sure. The delivery however..... EPIC. Kudos Sir.
Thanks so much 😊
This is the best instruction I've seen so far! Great job! thank you.
Thanks so much
I don’t own a Tesla. But I saw the thumbnail with the word Frunk in the title. So I just had to tune-in for that alone. Lol cool vid,Chris
Lol! Nope. Not a typo. And it’s only a matter of time before it’s included in Webster’s Dictionary.
Fact:
"He's the dad of JerryRigEverything".
Have a great day to y'all!
That’s some theory
I'm jealous. I've been with technical support for past month with hansshow. My auto frunk will automatically latch at all times whether frunk is open or closed
I haven’t tried the Hansshow, but comments I’ve read said the EVOffer is better. No complaints from me so far.
after watching this video, I think I can confidently install it properly. Im a little cautious because Some owners who installed the power frunk had their frunk opened while driving. I wonder what caused that.
That’s definitely scary but I don’t know how it could happen. It uses the factory latch and the factory sensor so it wouldn’t let them drive it wasn’t latched. And it wouldn’t let them unlatch it if they were in drive.
Fantastic video and tutorial! 👏🏽 Thanks 🙏🏽
Thanks so much 😊
Great installation. I installed mine a week ago. I think you have an issue about open/close procedure. It is not smooth… do you have fix it? And i think the bolt you have to put behind the spring is to big… you see the oem contactor and I think you risk to break it with such a big anchor…
It may not close smoothly, but it’s working as expected for an aftermarket adaptation. Still working great on my Model Y.
That is genius! I want it and I don't even have the car yet...
It’s a pain to install, but a really nice upgrade.
Excellent video and awesome camera work.
Thanks so much 😊
Whishe was made for the I-Pace with closing also
Maybe in the future, if it’s popular enough.
😊 I hear this can be controlled using Seri, if you know, could you please advise how.
I have an app called STATS. It’s not free, but it has no monthly fee. It does Siri integration for me. I can say “open the frunk”, for example, but from my Apple Watch and the frunk opens.
Not sure if the Tesla app does this.
Well done. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful 👍🏻
Very very good my friend!!💯👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🥇🏆❤️
Thanks so much 😊
Great Job. Does unit create a ghost load and prevent the car from going to sleep ? My wife just picked her Model X and the frunk worried her.
It’s a trickle load for the control unit. Doesn’t affect my car sleeping.
@@handydadtv can you elaborate on this?
@Tom - The control unit is connected directly to the 12V battery so I assume it’s drawing a tiny amount of power even if the car is sleeping. But it doesn’t prevent the car from sleeping.
Does this void any kind of warranty from Tesla??
While I don't personally know, I have heard Tesla is a stickler about making changes or working on your own vehicle. Again, that's just what I heard.
Certainly I wouldn’t be able to make a warranty claim for the hood latch mechanism that I modified. But it wouldn’t void the whole car warranty.
Do you if there is such a shop that does this installation service?
Check with any Custom Shop.
Any plan to do a video on installing a trunk kick sensor on Model Y?
No, I won’t do that one. There’s a risk that it can open accidentally in a car wash unless you remember to turn on the hazard lights. I don’t need it that bad.
@@handydadtvIndeed, it's a risk that I haven't thought of. Thanks for reminding. Looking forward to your other videos.
Very cool
Thanks
Does the Frunk Light button turn into a close button like other brands or do you have to rely on you phone and main screen?
Darn! I should have showed that! Yes, the light is also a button that will close the frunk.
@@handydadtv Awesome. Thanks!
Does this work with a 2023 Model Y?
Yes, according to their website which is linked in the description.
So how well is this working after 10 months? Any issues?
Still working great. No issues.
How is it powered with the recent change to 12v lithium batteries now?
Same way, although there is no elegant way to attach the wire. It just wraps around the positive connector. Not ideal, but it works.
There are a couple of ways to attach to the positive stud of the lithium battery. One is to unscrew the stud a little and slide the kit positive terminal under the base. The other is to attach the terminal using the nut supplied in most (all?) current kits.
Hello did you have to update the firmware?
I didn’t update the firmware.
Great info but I must say that the color blue has got to be the ugliest color Tesla I've ever seen and that's just my opinion. Js.
Thanks for the comment, even though you called my baby ugly.
@@handydadtv haha sorry sir,, but in all honesty that is an awesome device . I tune in because you're thorough and always have interesting cool DIY info. Even if I'll never need what you cover it's still cool the way you put everything together so thanks for the content!
I appreciate that. Thanks so much 😊
One persons ugly is another persons gorgeous...
@@ElDell I know, I know I really came off rude, in retrospect..
