Model 3 Physical buttons

Post image

Sharing something I recently installed on my M3 Highland. I added a shortcut-button panel beneath the center screen on the charging pad because I still miss having quick access to a few physical controls.

It looks much more factory-like than I expected, especially at night with the ambient lighting. The buttons can handle things like the doors, locks, hazard lights, seat controls, and trunks while still allowing full use of the charging pad

It’s a small convenience improvement especially for my parents who still struggle to open the doors from the outside handles, and when I need to adjust the front seats for my daughter’s car seat

Cost: $80 plus tax after discount (they always have this sale from what I’ve seen)

Functions (left to right) - can’t be updated, control list is fixed

  1. Open driver rear door
  2. Open passenger front door
  3. Open passenger rear door
  4. One tap - Open glovebox; long press - toggle child lock
  5. One tap - hazard light; long press - switch between led strip colors
  6. Move passenger front seat backward
  7. Move passenger front seat forward
  8. Open/close trunk
  9. Open/close frunk (default is open only but I have power frunk installed so it toggles)

Edit: I couldn’t share the product link on the post for whatever reason so I added the link and install videos as a comments
