I'll be getting my car this month. Please excuse my ignorance, but what is this trim for? Thanks.

Why? What if I don't? If I do, how many feet do I need?

Thanks for the reminder. Looks like I need to re-read past posts and threads for a refresher

DigDug... What is this for? I picked up my car yesterday

It prevents the plastic edge from digging into the side of the leather when sitting. Literally took 5 minutes to place. Definitely don’t need adhesive one , but I am sure it would work too. I ordered the 10ft roll. I used about 5 feet I think. I will repost the one I used.

There is a whole thread on what @DigDugLotus is talking about..

Driver seat issue

My car has just 200 miles + Just discovered today this leather issue . I’m not fat ! But something like this happened to my side probably from the plastic on the side . Something like this should be covered my warranty ?

I'm curious if anyone knows about any outstanding recall or service items for the batch of I4 cars that recently arrived in the US?

What have the dealers been doing in addition to the standard pre-delivery inspections?

Lastly, has the water ingress issue affecting the electronics in the front of the car been addressed at the factory? If so, how did they fix it?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences.

When I pick mine up 2 weeks ago….. there were no outstanding recalls or updates. Definitely check the side mirror retract feature. My passenger door mirror won’t retract. (From pre-dealership transport most likely forcing the mirror manually). Other than that….. almost a 1000 miles on it with zero issues. Most fun car ever…..

Do the I4's received have a battery tender built in them ??

Mine came with a lotus branded battery tender. As part of the PDI the pigtails were connected to the battery. No outstanding service issues or updates. The only issues was a turn signal fault that went away and hasn’t returned.

Yes… mine did come with a Lotus branded battery tender.

So excited to get the call that my car is here and ready for pick up.
I'll get it next week, and straight off to ppf.
Then home and straight into storage.

 

[Beachbum]

Cant believe how many excited Americans & Canadians there must be currently
Hope you all get your cars soon and no issues are present

Mine was about 3 weeks from Port to being ready at the dealer.

So just put mine in Car Capsule and tried to use the Lotus Battery Tender and its 25 degrees and I could not get hood
to latch to catch and keep lights off... I ended up using my Old Battery tender for the cable is much thinner
and allowed hood to latch...
Its to cold to play around but has anyone found a Route to run wire and not have to lift hood to plug battery tender in..

Out through the bottom of the engine or through the gap between the glass and the tailgate.
