Cubby Compartment
Installation Instructions and Operational Notes
Thanks for purchasing Cubby Compartment. Please read these installation instructions in their
entirety BEFORE you attempt to install Cubby Compartment.
Cubby Compartment has been designed to provide a more efficient and ergonomic storage
solution for your Model S and Model X cubby. We’ve created an Installation Video that can be
viewed at www.evannex.com.
IMPORTANT: The installation of the Cubby Compartment is very simple and requires no tools
or other materials.
Quick Start Installation Steps:
Step 1. Clean out your cubby, being sure that all items in it are removed and that the rear
cubby wall is clean (see Figure that follows). You can use alcohol on a paper towel to clean
the rear interior wall of the cubby, if it appears dirty.
Step 2. Remove the white tape backing
for the magnetic plate (called a “keeper”)
as shown in Figure to the right. Be sure
the keeper is centered on the small
cylindrical magnet on the outer rear wall
of the Cubby Compartment.
Step 3. Slide the Cubby Compartment into
the cubby and press the front of Cubby
Compartment toward the front of the
vehicle so that the keeper adheres to the
back interior wall of the cubby.

Step 4. Pull the Cubby Compartment out (see Operational Notes below) and press the
keeper with your fingers to ensure a tight bond on the rear interior wall of the cubby. If for
some reason the keeper did not adhere in Step 3, press it in place by hand in the center of the
rear cubby wall.
Step 5. Slide your Cubby Compartment into the cubby, and your installation is complete.
Operational Notes:
Over the years since the Model S was introduced to the market, Tesla has made a number of small
changes to the cubby configuration, resulting in small variations in the cubby geometry. These include
a different rubber/foam base material and slight modifications to the aluminum trim geometry on
some versions of Model S. These small variations can affect the manner in which Cubby Compartment
slides into and out of the cubby opening.
To date, the Model X cubby characteristics have remained unchanged.
Given these small variations for Model S, please note items 1 and 2 below:
1. If you experience difficulty removing the Cubby Compartment, press down gently on the
handle while pulling outward. The Cubby Compartment should slide right out.
2. If you continue to experience difficulty removing the cubby, you may own a Model S with a
cubby that has a odd rubber base or foam configuration (see Figure below). It may be that
you’ll have to trim the material slightly to allow the Cubby Compartment to slide properly. To
accomplish this use an Exacto knife or an industrial razor blade and trim the rubberized foam
(dashed line) to the level of the hard plastic cubby edge (solid line).
In addition, please note these generic operation notes:
3. The magnetic hold mechanism (the cylindrical magnet and keeper) has been designed to keep
the cubby in place in most driving conditions. However, under very heavy acceleration (think:
“insane” or “ludicrous” modes), the Cubby Compartment will slide outward.
4. The Cubby Compartment has been designed to slide completely out of the cubby with no
stops. This has been done to ensure easy access to all items in your Cubby Compartment; for
cleaning of the Cubby Compartment, and to keep installation simple and product cost
manageable.
