Top Tesla Model 3 Accessories
About a month ago we purchased a Geek's dream car, the Tesla Model 3 SR+ (known as Jon Snow)!
The amount of technology and performance you get for ~ $45k is amazing, but there were still some accessories we needed to get to make the car more uniquely ours. Also, to keep costs down, Tesla left a few things out.

Here are my favorite Tesla Model 3 Accessories:
Autailors All Weather Car Floor Mats Set For Tesla Model 3 Made In USA
While many Model 3 owners were recommending the 3D MAXpider AllWeather Mats, we wanted something that went a little bit better with the fancy white interior. These look really good and are of high quality! They offer a 3 piece set for about $199 and a 6 piece set that also covers the frunk and trunk.
- Easy to Install & Convenient: Ensure that the mats are placed on the base flooring of the car as the original mat must be removed for the correct fit
- Waterproof & Weatherproof: All weather floor mats created for low maintenance with high durability. Carbon weave styling helps to capture mud, debris, and grime without it getting onto the carpet for ultimate protection. Waterproof capabilities help prevent moisture from reaching carpeting when subjected to winter or rainy conditions; also great for kids who love to spill.
- Lightweight & Heavy Duty: Made of four quality layers combined by hot press technology; First layer is Textilene Fabric (knitted in different colors for enhanced visual); second layer is TPR allowing it to be flame retardant and waterproof; third layer is nylon fiber for ultimate comfort & cushioning; the fourth layer is made of anti skid material.
- Custom Fit & Odorless: Extended edge & lip provides full coverage and protection from snow, ice, rain, or dirt. Exact fitting to ensure pedals will not be affected. No chemical smell and will remain odorless throughout usage due to the convenience of how it could be cleaned.
- Non-damaging Anti-Skid Layer: Non-skid layer prevents mats from slipping around on the floor. Created with a material that has micro-hooks that can hold mat in place without harming the original carpet. This material does not cause any damage onto the car floor unlike Velcro or other floor mats that requires nibs.
- ALL WEATHER PROTECTION - The 3D MAXpider KAGU Series Floor Liners are designed to provide complete automotive interior protection from dirt, mud, salt, rain, snow and keep your vehicle’s floor clean and pristine in all seasons
- THE PERFECT FIT - Using high-precision laser scanning technology, each floor mat is custom-made for your vehicle with maximum coverage compared to OEM and universal car mats. The raised side edges prevent dirt from getting underneath the carpet
- MULTI-LAYER CONSTRUCTION – Sleek, durable, waterproof, lightweight, patented anti-skid backing, The innovative hybrid material floor liners offer many greater benefits than traditional rubber mats. The Thermoplastic Rubber Surface offers waterproof protection with a sleek texture; the lightweight XPE Foam absorbs vibrations and reduces road noise; the Anti-Skid Backing grips the floor firmly and prevents from moving
- 100% ODORLESS - Made by environment-friendly SGS certified material, all 3D MAXpider Floor Liners are completely non-toxic and odorless so you don't need to experience the unpleasant rubber smell
- EASY TO CLEAN - Thanks to the weatherproof and stain-resistant surface, it’s never been easier to clean these mats. Simply remove them from your vehicle, wipe with wet towel or hose off and make your floor mats new again

The Original Windshield Sun Shade, Custom-Fit for Tesla 3 Sedan 2018, 2019, Silver Series
We live in Austin, Texas where it is hot more than not. When parked outside, it can get brutally hot inside the car. While the Tesla Model 3 does have a climate function to run the fans an/or AC when parked, this uses up some of the electric range. Austin Detailing tinted our side & rear windows with high IR & UV blocking Xpel Prime XR film. We decided not to tint the front windshield and purchased this Custom Fit Sun Shade instead for about $40. It's sturdy, fits well and does a good job of keeping heat out.
- Custom fit and Made in the USA for: 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 Tesla 3 Sedan
- The advanced 3-layer construction produces dramatic temperature differences in parked vehicles…up to 40° Fahrenheit.
- Simple Installation: Unroll across the dash, bend the HeatShield behind the rear view mirror and flip the sun visors down
- To store, roll up and secure with attached velcro strap
- Fit & quality guaranteed: One year limited warranty

Samsung T5 Portable SSD - 500GB - USB 3.1 External SSD (MU-PA500)
Why do you need a portable SSD drive for a Tesla? Three reasons:
- Tesla has the ability to use its Autopilot cameras(and now rear backup camera) as Dashcams!
- Tesla also has the ability to use these cameras when parked, known as Sentry Mode.
- You can put your favorite MP3 music on the drive to listen to.
I partitioned this drive into 400GB for Teslacam/Sentry duties and 100Gb for my iTunes collection. I could not believe how small this SSD drive was when I received it. On my Mac, I erased the existing partition to one Mac partition. I then erased and created 2 mac partitions. After that, I was able to erase and create 2 Fat32 partitions of 400GB & 100GB. (The mac calls it just 'FAT' but it does create a FAT32 partition). On the 400GB you need to create a folder called TeslaCam. It sounds worse than it is. Cost for the drive was about $89
- Superfast read write speeds: SSD with V-NAND offers ultra-fast data transfer speeds of up to 540MB/s (up to 4.9x faster than external HDDs); Ideal for transferring large-sized data including 4K videos, high-resolution photos, games and more
- Compact and portable design: Top to bottom shock resistant metal design fits in the palm of your hand and easily slides in your pocket or purse to take work and entertainment on the go
- Secure encryption: Optional password protection and AES 256-bit hardware encryption keeps your personal and private data more secure
- Seamless connectivity: Includes USB type C to C and USB type C to A cables to connect to PCs, Macs, smartphones and other devices
- Warranty and compatibility: 3-year limited warranty; Requires Windows 7, Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks), Android 4.4 (KitKat), or higher; Older versions of the Windows, Mac and Android operating systems may not be supported
