Using RFID Transponders
When attaching an RFID transponder (used by many
automated toll systems) inside Model Y, place the
transponder next to the rear view mirror. This ensures best
results and minimizes any obstruction to your driving view.
Refer to the RFID manufacturer's instructions for specific
placement.
NOTE: You can also attach a weather-proof transponder to
the front license plate.
Installing Front License Plate Bracket
To accommodate jurisdictions that require a license plate on
the front of your vehicle,
Model Y is equipped with a license
plate bracket. This bracket conforms to the shape of your
vehicle's front bumper and is adhered to it using strong
adhesive.
NOTE: Tesla recommends performing this procedure on a
clean, dry vehicle during a warm day. Cold and/or wet
conditions may result in reduced performance of the
adhesive.
To install the front license plate bracket:
1.
Get isopropyl alcohol and test it on a non-visible painted
surface of your vehicle to confirm that it does not damage
or remove the paint.
2.
Clean the mounting site with isopropyl alcohol and allow
to dry for at least one minute.
3.
Fully remove the protective tape from the adhesive at the
top of the bracket and partially remove the tape from the
top of the adhesive on each side. Leave the bottom half of
the tape on the sides in place and fold the unattached
tape outward for easy removal after aligning the bracket
to the bumper.
4.
While tilting the top of the license plate bracket away from
the bumper (to prevent adhering it to the wrong location),
align the bottom center of the license plate bracket with
the middle of the grille as shown.
