  1. Working Magsafe / Magnetic Qi Wireless Charging Pad Install! - DIY Writeup

    I appreciate the original intent of this thread, to add magsafe to the original rivian fit/finish. I see multiple pointers to riviparts, and while I appreciate what they do, I would rather have a stealth/oem feel to the installation (as the OP completed). What options do I have to buy parts...
  2. 🎨 LAUNCH GREEN R1S Photos

    I struggled when selecting tint, because I wanted UV protection but didn't want the tint to be opaque from the outside. 50% turned out great and is a nice blend to the factory darker back windows. Just got it back with front PPF and ceramic coating.
  3. 50% tint - looks great, not too dark

    I struggled when selecting tint, because I wanted UV protection but didn't want the tint to be opaque from the outside. 50% turned out great and is a nice blend to the factory darker back windows. Just got it back with front PPF and ceramic coating.
  4. Fix Wireless Charging in Your Rivian With This 3D Print Part!

    Thanks for the pointer, I ordered two different 76mm for my oneplus 9 pro from the thingaverse files via treatstock. Hopeful that it works out. When driving as-is, my phone skates around a bit and beeps in and out of charging range.
  5. R1S - just one owner's thoughts at the 2 month mark

    I just went from the E63S (coupe) to the R1S. Yes, dramatically different vehicle, but vehicle dynamics can be similar. The think is that R1S seems very soft, even in the lowest ride heights. My old 2008? GL550 had air ride and it felt more sporty when it was in sport mode. I'm an amateur...
  6. R1S Dog Owners

    Lay down the 3rd row, purchase the Orvis Cargo Quilted cover XL. Fit's perfectly. Also think about a ramp if you have a heavy dog as it is quite the vertical leap/drop even at the lowest setting.
  7. Best center screen cover?

    Instead of a cover for hard glass, how about keeping a small sprayer and microfiber for cleaning in the console? I recommend carpro eraser and the blue waffle mf towels.
  8. R1S ppf STEK dynoshield front, ceramic, front tint quoted/scheduled

    Entire front is to be PPF'd. I do _not_ think the painted section between glass and roof will have ppf - I'll add that thank you.
  9. R1S ppf STEK dynoshield front, ceramic, front tint quoted/scheduled

    Yeah, I considered, but I think I'll stick with the chrome right now. I might end up adding this myself at a later time. My FG/black 22 might really need the blackout treatment though.
  10. R1S ppf STEK dynoshield front, ceramic, front tint quoted/scheduled

    I visited this shop today, new to me since I am new to the area. The shop was clean, organized, and their quote/scheduling was all electronic (as opposed to paper out here in the middle of nowhere). Correction, front clip+A+B pillars ppf, ceramic everything including wheels, plastic, and...
  11. Subwoofer replacement, anyone?

    I heard back from JL, and they need to hear that you are interested in a stealth box BEFORE they will add it to the R&D list. Now that I have an R1S, I see a ton of potential easy spaces for a stealthbox, e.g. lower rear trunk cargo area. If you are interested in a stealthbox for an R1T or...
  12. Subwoofer replacement, anyone?

    I noticed it can sound awful, but with proper tuning it can be quite lively and satisfying. When looking at the EQ, return to defaults, and try to cut instead of boost. It's not always possible but it does improve the result. Regarding rattles, if you are motivated, using silicone on the...
  13. Subwoofer replacement, anyone?

    I'm not looking to be excessive, but accurate and with impact. I've found "impact" (tactile) to be as important as anything, and a high quality woofer can provide this. I've achieved this equally in the past with ridiculous 2x15", 4x12", down to something as simple as 2x8". I have even heard...
  14. Subwoofer replacement, anyone?

    I just pinged JL audio for an R1S stealthbox, I hope they develop an alternative.
  15. When does the model year officially shift to 2023?

    But...I can take delivery of a 2023, in 30-45 days, under $80k, with a 2023 tax credit of $7500, and come out a few thousand better. Seems like a no-brainer given the short wait and considering it's already been 2.5 years in the queue. I also start to wonder, given the linked thread above...
  16. When does the model year officially shift to 2023?

    Well, it certainly affected the resale value of my 2018 E63S (delivered during 2019 model year), so I'm not making that mistake again. I'm less worried about the updates, more worried that I will unnecessarily lose several thousands of dollars in value for the mere additional wait of 30-45...
  17. When does the model year officially shift to 2023?

    I just sent a message to my guide. I'm unmatching from this 2022. My delivery window is Feb-Mar, there is no reason for me to take an outdated model year. I've waited 2.5 years, I can wait another 30-45 days.
  18. When does the model year officially shift to 2023?

    I'm matched with an R1S, and as I'm looking at the contract to purchase on 1/20/23, it says 2022 model year. I'm wondering why...this will affect my resale when I'm at the last possible moment for a switch to 2023 model year.
