My god, my neck and my ribcage are still sore from the contortions I needed to remove that T20 screw. However, my AC is now finally cleaned and no longer smelly! Overall, besides dealing with that screw's awful positioning, it was pretty straightforward. Even for a guy like who hates DIYing things.
I wanted to put together a list of the products I used, video, and help anyone out who is planning on doing their own cabin air filter change on their 3/Y.
Note: I've heard that in the later models after 2020, the T20 screw has moved. Maybe a newer owner can comment on that below.
Products used (total cost was $74.03)
- HEPA Filters (these are quite pricey but I liked that they were HEPA and included a T20 allen key + trim removal tool) -https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B085HX67ZX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - $49.99
- Kool-it Evaporator: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0007PHD0S/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - $14.95
- T20 allen key (make sure you get an alley key, you will cry if you use a screwdriver. Only need this if you don't get the HEPA filters with the included wrench): https://smile.amazon.com/Edward-Tools-Star-Key-Wrench/dp/B086TWPXP5 - $6.95
- Thumbscrew replacement so you can replace the T20 screw once you remove it: https://www.ebay.com/itm/294266916107?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 - $9.99
One personal tip:
- After I sprayed in the kool-it foam into the AC condenser, the guy in the video said to blast the AC. Little did I know that this will blast the foam out of the air filter slot and all over your passenger seat floor. Make sure you cover it with the filter plastic cover before blasting your AC.

As the title says. It's pretty insane how far we have come with the ability to modify images, and these sorts of images really have a large impact on body image, especially for our younger counterparts. This can lead individuals to believe they are inadequate or never can look or feel good in their bodies because of the outrageous standards set by models and influencers through the use of filters and third party programs to alter their own appearance. So I think there should be a law that forces these individuals who alter images in such ways to state that the image has been altered by filters/third party software. Similar to how when reviewing a product the influencer must state at some point the the product was provided for free, and things of the like.
It could be something as simple as how reddit has flair for posts, or just some small text below the image. Hard to miss text stating "This image has been altered by x" or something. Just so people aren't led to believe that this is an actual standard of beauty or something. Punishment for non-compliance being some kind of a fine. It really is horrible how we allow, and sometimes even encourage, these unrealistic standards to be pushed onto ourselves and future generations. People should be informed that what they're seeing is unrealistic and fake. The media's influence on standards of body image is far too harsh, and I think this would be a great step in the right direction. People need to understand that we're all human, no one is perfect, and you're fine just how you are. Don't let these illusionists tell you you're don't look good, because in reality, their behavior is the thing that's ugly.
"This image was artificially altered" or "This image was enhanced with Photoshop" (or whatever program(s) were used.)
Can i create Model Relationship with Filter ???
class Underwriting(BaseModel):
company = models.ForeignKey(Company.objects.filter(condition=True), on_delete=models.PROTECT)
benefit = models.ForeignKey(Benefit, on_delete=models.PROTECT)
How to do that ??
I feel like it is a quite specific 3d model / mount but i think a lot of people need such a mount?
I do have a 3d printer which can only print PLA (unfortunately).
I found plenty of PLA mount options such as:

And i bought this TBS nd filters:
https://n-factory.de/TBS-GoPro-ND-Filter-ND16
which can be put to the session with this mount for example:
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2425583/makes
My ultimate goal is to have a mount which can also fit in the nd filters...does anyone have something like this?
Where did you get the model / buy the model or buy such a mount from a seller?
Whats your solution to this problem?
I replaced the in-cabin filters on my wife's Model Y last night, using a set of carbon-activated filters that work in both the 3 and the Y.
The included instructions, while generally correct, are wrong for the Y at basically the last step in the removal process. So in case you're doing this yourself, and run into the same thing, here's what you're looking for…
(Note: We have a *very* early build car; I don't know if this has been changed on newer versions or not.)

The instructions that came with my filters said to follow the orange high voltage line (no orange line in the Y) to the highest screw (you can see where I've removed a high-up screw towards the top of the image). But that's not right at all for the Y—that high screw is irrelevant. Leave the high-up screw alone, and just remove the one marked with the arrow.
The filter cover will then come off, and from there, it's a simple task, other than getting the side panel back on again—12 separate snap-clips that need to be lined up. Ugh.
Tesla may have mastered electric cars, but they're pretty bad at designing for serviceability, at least relative to cabin air filters. (It's even worse on the S, which is why I've set a service appointment to have them do mine, plus the so-much-worse HEPA filter.)
Edit: The filters were dirty, and we were getting the smell issue. Here's a bit of one of them for a sense of just how much gunk was in them...

This was accidental since my sister moved during the shot, but I like how it came out
Can anyone help?
