• Screen Mount Review
I want to thank Mike for this video. I want to be clear; Mike paid full retail for a mount kit and chose to do this video on his own accord. He asked me to shoot that clip he included. But, I am not paying him, nor did I ask him to do this. I am, however, grateful for his review.
I would really much rather prefer Matt’s product but at this point there is such a price discrepancy. I can buy the Chinese version on Amazon right now for $99 with free shipping. Matt’s is $350 to $400 (atlas plus). Then add $15 more for shipping. So we are talking as much as $315 more for Matt’s best mount over the Chinese one which does 85% what Matt’s does. Just can’t justify that extra cost. If Matt’s Atlas mount was $200 I think it would be a no brainer. Matt needs to figure out a way to bring the cost down.
100%
If (and that’s a big if) I was going to make this modification, I’d go with the Atlas mount. The reason would be that the care, thought, engineering, design, and quality are very obviously there.
But I am actually quite satisfied with the touchscreen as it is. To each their own. If this guy comes up with other products for the Model 3, I’d certainly consider them. He knows what he is doing.
Thanks for the great review!
Great summary and comparison! Thank you!
Thank you Mike for the review it was just would i was looking for just ordered mine. Definitely worth the extra for the quality i am getting plus its made home in the USA. Also thank you Matt for your hard work on the mount been following your channel to but FTG brought to my attention. Cant wait to install this mount Matts has the quality and everything i wanted Thanks again
I wish I saw this video a week ago. I ran into a man who was approximately 6’7” tall, maybe taller. He was interested in my brand new Tesla and I let him sit in the car to see how he fit. His knee was touching the screen in my 2022 model Y. I told him there was a larger model and he might want to go test drive it but I wish I had been able to tell him that there were mounts like this that he could look into. Hopefully if he goes for a test drive someone will suggest that to him. Thanks for the video it’s very clear that I would also by the atlas mount if or when I am ready to do so.
Brilliant invention and great video - THANK YOU !
Excellent video!
I've all 3 re-designed units and spoken to Matt many times. I love my Atlas and promote it whenever I can. Great value for the money. Second best mod I've done to my car..!!
I’d like to see an installation video for the atlas mount
Please add another installation video.
I would definitely choose Matt's Atlas mount over the competitors.
I bought one of the older models witch is working great love it. But I say in the video that you have a sticker from tech form I looked on there site for it and I could not find it how do I get one. I have a lot of stickers on my Tesla and would love to add it to my collection
Great Vid!
Nice work!
Thanks FTG!
Thank you for the informative & quite helpful review. I ended up purchasing Tech Forum's Atlas Mount for my 2022 Model Y after watching a variety of instructional videos & reviews, including this one. I'm really looking forward to receiving the mount and getting it installed. I'm quite happy to pay extra for the superior quality & improved functionality of the Atlas Mount versus cheap counterfeits from the Far East. I strongly believe in rewarding the hard work & creativity of the product's inventor instead of exporting my dollars to knock-off copycats.
(On a side note, I think it's shameful that Amazon clearly does not respect patents and is more than happy to allow millions of pirated products to be sold on their platform, their sole interest being the massive fees & commissions they collect from such unethical vendors.)
I do have one caveat - I purchased my Atlas Mount on October 13, 2022 and, other than the initial order confirmation, there has been no communication or status update from Tech Forum. It's been 3 weeks and I still have no idea when it will be shipped. I'm counting on it arriving by Thanksgiving 2022, 6 weeks after I ordered it, so that my best friend, who is much better at such things than I am, can install it for me during his visit from out of state. It will be a breeze for him, whereas I would very likely screw it up. 🤪
To be clear, this is not truly a complaint, because I'm optimistic I will receive the Atlas Mount in time. I assume Tech Forum is having difficulty keeping up with the demand for this awesome and highly-desirable invention, which is understandable. I just wish their communication was a little better. 🙂
As a follow-up, I'm happy to report that I received a status update from Tech Forum late today saying that my Atlas Mount will ship in the next few days. So I'm very happy about that and am excited to receive it! Thank you Tech Forum!
Do you know if it impacts any warranty issues ?
I have it (Atlas) and love it!
Hi,
Have you had any experience with electric one?
this is great
The tech forum mount may not fit. The mount was too big to fit in the bracket on my model y. The competitors fit without any issue. Also the plastic shroud looks better (OEM) on the competitors kit. Made my own strain relief that appears to be working fine.
Good for you. If it’s working for you then great. I personally am not a big fan of the wonky and cheap feel of the cheap Chinese knockoff and prefer a well thought out design that works. To each their own. 🤷♂️
Thank you. Assume similar for 2022 MYLR?
Yup!
Well done - maybe a bit of a mea culpa? I would like to see the screen move up an inch or two - because when your phone is sitting in the chargers you cannot see the notifications at the top of the phone, and the screen would be easier to see with it closer to eye level to look over and not over and down so much. What was the reasoning for the design to go lower rather than higher?
Yes, this is the main thing that stops me seriously considering this mod, the screen height is low enough at stock, and I wouldn’t want it any lower.
The issue is mechanical interference. It must drop a bit for mechanical clearance.
@@TechForumTesla is seeing the speed an issue with the screen lower and turned towards the driver?
@@toddschneiderman4646 no
Is the Atlas mounting firm enough that it doesn't move when you use the screen?
Are you able to tension the movement pressure yourself to get a desired feel?
Yes and yes. There is a separate instruction video on this very thing in the instructions. Separate pivot tension adjustments.
@@TechForumTesla I watched the video. Thanks.
Impressed, available down under? Thanks
Yes. They are designed to be used for both left and right.
Great overview much thanks. I was just sent a generic left/right swivel mount (no up and down) to promo, however I did not consider the cable strain relief which I too think is a deal breaker. The additional features of the Atlas mount make it a clear choice for overall quality and more importantly, longevity. I plan on keeping my 2020 Model 3 for 10 years or until it dies, so I don't want to worry about the cable breaking and having to spend $1500 bucks on a new screen!
One question I don't thing you addressed....do any of these mounts void any part of the Tesla Warranty related to the screen? If the screen has an issue, say a year down the line after installing one of these mounts, with the vehicle still in full factory warranty, will Tesla not fix it under warranty because of the mount? Appreciate any feedback on this.
Most likely it will. However, if it’s a concern you can always re-install the original mount before you take it in if you do have screen issues.
Which I did to have the entire dash replaced under warranty, and they knew about the swivel/tilt mount when I first brought it to service for the dash replenishment. So no, it WONT void it. Just put it back to OEM and they'll do any repair needed..!!
New screen is $1000 btw. Takes 15 minutes to replace oem
If cable strain is only your concern, zip tie the cable to the mount for generic brand will save you $250-$300. I agree that Atlas mount is superior product, just not sure whether it is 3 times superior ($99 vs $350). $250 more to protect a screen that could be easily replaced (if worse comes to it) for $1000.
My issue with both designs is the 2 inch drop of the screen position.
Thanks, that helped me make my decision. It's a no
It gives a better view out the front window over the low hood as well, so yes for me..!!
Is there a reason why the Atlas Mount tilts down so far?
Because it’s on a separate axis than the left and right swivel.
@@FrugalTeslaGuy I get that, but it could have been restricted on the down movement.
Wow, what you didn't do is a price comparison. And when you do that, you will ask yourself if those few hundred dollars are worth the difference.
Absolutely yes! I may be frugal but I'm not cheap, especially when it comes to my Tesla. The question is, do you want Fisher Price or top quality?
@@FrugalTeslaGuy - honestly I am not constantly moving the screen. Actually I think mine can do exactly what yours can do
But the sacrifice is telephone view in the charger!
Yes. This is not for everyone.
Please build an installation video
Bob here you go

I wish someone would make a new dash and have the screen built in like the new model S.
There are types out there....
@@msbgone nice. I didn’t knew that. Where do I look ?
@@mkcinc23 Search Tesla Model 3 Model Y Head Up Display on Amazon.
@@msbgone oh yeah. I’ve seen those. I am talking about the center screen. I like how the screen is built into the dash like the new S.
@@mkcinc23 Oh, I see, seems like it would be too far back then, but I get it, looks nice and built in....
I don,t really understand why a tilted screen is needed.
Aftermarket wheels are not needed either. It doesn't mean there is no market for them.
Until you have one! It really makes a difference. I hesitated at first, but once I installed...game changer. Especially my comute is west/east, so the sun is always behind me creating glare. The tilt completely eliminated this issue.
As a wearer of progressive lenses, I am interested to see if a swivel mount will make the right-hand part of the screen easier to read. In the default configuration, there is a different focus distance between the left and right part of the screen, making quick glances more difficult.
@@spacekitteh84 Yes it does because you can angle the screen to be parallel with your line of sight.
Aside from being a bit neurotic, You seem like the kind of guy who puts a screen protector on his model 3 screen as well. Lol
I have never once felt the need to tilt my screen or to junk up my car with all that aftermarket crap.....
Patents are worthless
