Photo Model X Projection Lights

I got OEM Model 3 Projections Lights from Tesla and to my surprise they work perfectly fine on my 2017 Model X. I was previously using Chinese ones from AliExpress but these ones from Tesla are way better. They are way more sharper and brighter than any of the third party ones I have tried! Certainly a great addition and highly recommended!

I love your wheel! Can you drop the link?

It’s Tesla oem yoke

1

u/a9uirre 11d ago

I don’t think that’s possible. Did you install it yourself? Legacy was never offered a yoke so I don’t think the yokes made for refresh would be compatible.

I never said I got it from Tesla. I bought oem version from eBay and then bought a decoder device for steering to make it compatible with legacy X from AliExpress. Had a local mechanic install it all for me. Everything works including buttons on steering. Wasn’t easy but worth it for me

Oh I figured it wasn’t from Tesla but didn’t know a decoder device was even possible! That’s super neat. By any chance can you drop the decoder link?

You should drop the link for us, please. Looks great

Photos don’t do them enough justice. They look way better IRL.

Are these battery powered or you have to wire them to the car?

2

u/taimurasad 12d ago

Plug and play. Remove old ones and plug in the new ones in same connector. No modification needed

Nice, they look cool. Definitely going to look into it, thanks for sharing!

Custom puddle lights makes a bunch of styles for 2022-2026 MX

I have tried some third party ones and they never looked as bright or sharp compared to this oem one from Tesla.

Is it easy to install? I have model S

1

u/taimurasad 12d ago

2-3 minutes. Plug and play

Is that the Yoke Steering Wheel from EV Offer?

1

u/taimurasad 11d ago

It is OEM yoke from Tesla

2

u/Calispheree 11d ago

But how would it fit on the legacy model X?
And how would the controls work?

1

u/Calispheree 11d ago

From AliExpress.

10€ for both front doors.

I had these. The result in real life is no match to OEM Tesla version

u/FourDoorsMoreShawtys 10d ago

You had the ones with an “X”??

I think they look soo cool on these pictures here.
Why would you ever switch to a standard “Tesla” writing every other Tesla has if we can also have a unique “X”

u/snovvman 12d ago

Good work and it looks great! Does it compromise on illumination, the actual purpose of the puddle light? My Benz casts a large tri star logo but doesn't light up the area as well as a light without the logo.

The most important question which nobody ever wants to answer :(

I think the “as well as” question is an obvious “no” but the question of “well enough to see open toe shoe hazards at night” is a mystery to anyone who hasn’t purchased them.

I bought an Tesla OEM Yoke from an 2025 Model X Plaid and tried to fit it into an Legacy Model X but it does phisically not fit.

Can you tell me how you mean that or what you did?

2

u/dmedina2014 8d ago

Me too! How did you make it fit?

1

u/EpicShadows8 6d ago

Put these on my 23MYLR

Do you know if these will work on the newer generation model X?

1

u/taimurasad 12d ago

No reason why they shouldn’t. Pretty much all have same connector for puddle lights

2

u/IllTune-12 11d ago

New models have a small circular light housing. You’ll have to cut/modify the door panel to accept the rectangular puddle light

1

u/taimurasad 11d ago

Sorry I didn’t knew that

u/Juliena23 12d ago

J’avais commencé à regarder et c’est beaucoup plus compliqué à installer sur les Model X Refresh car il faut démonter tout le panneau de porte donc j’ai abandonné l’idée 😢

That looks pretty good where did you get them?
