Last updated: · My Tesla Tuning, Rüsselsheim am Main
Many Tesla owners add floor mats, sunshades, and paint protection after delivery. Before you buy accessories indiscriminately, it is worth looking at the order of priority: what protects the car, what makes everyday life noticeably better, and what is just nice decoration? This priority list sorts common accessories for the Model 3 and Model Y by genuine utility.
Priority 1: Protection that pays off immediately
- All-weather floor mats. The most important first purchase. Custom-fit TPE mats keep moisture and road salt off the carpet. For Model Y (2020 to 2024) (from €129.00) and Model 3 Highland (from €125.00).
- Trunk and frunk mats. Protect exactly the recessed areas where charging cable dirt and moisture collect. For example, the Model Y trunk mat (from €53.90).
- Loading sill protection. A few euros to prevent those typical scratches while loading: Carbon-look loading sill protector (from €11.99).
- Mud flaps. To prevent stone chips on rocker panels and wheel arches: Mud flaps for Model 3 or Model Y (€34.99, please select the appropriate model variant).
Priority 2: Comfort you notice every day
- Glass roof sunshade. Noticeably reduces heat in the summer. For Model Y Juniper (€59.99) and Model 3 Highland (€57.99); for older generations, please select the matching version on the product page.
- Brighter interior lighting. The Ultra-bright interior LED (2-piece set) (from €22.99) makes the interior much more visible at night.
- Organizing the trunk. Little money, big impact: Trunk net (from €9.99) and for the Model Y, the No-drill trunk hook (from €14.99).
- Drinks on the go. The Thermos bottle with LCD temperature display (from €19.99) shows the temperature directly on the display.
Priority 3: Aesthetics and extras
Once protection and comfort are covered, you can add your personal touch: design emblems, additional lighting accents, and seasonal bundles. These items are nice to have, but not essential. If you prefer DIY, we also recommend the Toolbox with clips and tools (from €24.99) so that trim panels can be removed without damage.
