Highlights

Mesh Contact Surface
The shaped cushion has a broad mesh contact area and a mesh section along the front edge. These views show its surface and shape; they do not establish passenger-seat occupant-detection compatibility.

One or Two Cushion Options
Choose one cushion or the two-piece quantity. The pair pictured illustrates the quantity option, without granting permission for use on the front passenger seat.

Good to Know
Caution
- An aftermarket cushion between the seat and occupant may affect passenger occupant detection. Tesla guidance instructs against modifying the front passenger seat; not for the front passenger seat.
- The cushion infrared sensor controls its fan and is not the vehicle occupant-classification system.
- For any permitted position, maintain the correct seating posture and keep side-airbag paths, seat controls, wiring, belt hardware and full seat movement clear. Route cables clear of pedals and seat tracks.
Care
- Disconnect power before cleaning. Wipe the surface lightly and keep the fan, cable and electrical connections dry; avoid harsh chemicals.
FAQ
What does the fan do?
It circulates air through the cushion mesh. No specific airflow, quietness level or temperature drop is guaranteed here.
Does its infrared sensor replace vehicle occupant detection?
No. It controls the cushion fan and does not establish passenger airbag or occupant-classification compatibility.
Can I use the two-piece option on both front seats?
No. An aftermarket pad may affect passenger occupant detection, so it is not for the front passenger seat.
How is it powered?
It is powered through the supplied power cable.
How should I clean it?
Disconnect power and wipe the surface gently with a lightly damp cloth. Keep electrical parts dry and avoid harsh chemicals.
