- Black leather or Alcantara
- Heating configured by vehicle
- Airbag cover optional
- 50 product-specific reviews
Fitment is factory and date specific
Select the production group shown below—not simply “Model Y.”
The Model Y options are separated by factory because the relevant wheel configuration and changeover timing can differ. Confirm the build location and production date before ordering.
| Vehicle | Selector | Boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Model 3 | 2017–2023.8 | Legacy Model 3 only; Model 3 Highland is not included. |
| Model Y · USA | 2020–2025.02 | US-built pre-Juniper vehicles within the listed production range. |
| Model Y · China | 2021.09–2025.02 | China-built pre-Juniper vehicles within the listed production range. |
| Model Y · Germany | 2022.04–2025.02 | Germany-built pre-Juniper vehicles within the listed production range. |
Not for Model 3 Highland or Model Y Juniper. If the vehicle's factory or production month is uncertain, verify it in the vehicle information or with TESERY before checkout.
The change is more than visual
Know the yoke trade-off before you buy.
Removing the upper arc opens the sightline toward the display and gives the cabin a more technical profile. It also removes the familiar top hand position used on a round wheel.
- Normal cruising: the broad side grips provide clear hand-reference points.
- Parking and tight turns: hand-over-hand steering feels different and may require an adaptation period.
- Closed lower rim: unlike an open-bottom yoke, this design keeps a continuous lower grip path.
Good fit for: drivers who actively want the yoke interaction—not only the appearance. If you frequently use the top of a round wheel, consider that habit before changing.
Build the correct configuration
Vehicle, grip material and airbag cover are three separate choices.
Airbag module: every configuration reuses the vehicle's compatible original driver-airbag module. The selectable cover is not an airbag. Confirm the original airbag, connectors and cover condition before disassembly.
What the gallery demonstrates
Judge the assembly from the uncovered and installed views.
The product imagery shows the closed yoke frame, dual scroll-control layout, matching front trim and the center opening before an airbag module and cover are installed.
- Use the uncovered image to understand which center components must be transferred.
- Compare leather and Alcantara photos for surface texture and appearance.
- Installed photos show the sightline and lower-rim position in real cabins.
Product-specific evidence
Use owner feedback to evaluate fit, material and the learning curve.
This listing currently displays a 5.0 rating from 50 product-specific reviews. The most useful feedback is the detail—not the score alone.
Berlin-built Model Y
A verified owner in Hungary reported full compatibility with a MY24 Berlin-built vehicle—supporting the need to choose the Germany production group.
Adjustment is real
A Model Y owner noted that the yoke took a few days to adjust to before it became familiar. That is a more realistic expectation than “instant comfort.”
Cleanability and winter use
Model 3 owners specifically mention the leather surface, airbag-cover fit and heating in cold-weather use. Review the latest entries below for the closest vehicle match.
Installation decision
Watch the complete process, then decide whether to DIY.
Many Model 3/Y owners complete a steering-wheel swap themselves. The work still involves the driver airbag, center fastener, electrical connectors, control alignment and a centered post-installation check.
- Verify the exact vehicle and ordered configuration before removing the original wheel.
- Follow Tesla service information for the exact model; do not copy torque values from another generation.
- After installation, test horn, scroll controls and heating, and confirm that no airbag warning remains.
Independent Model 3/Y installation reference; the wheel and included parts shown are not this exact package. Review the applicable Tesla Model 3 or Model Y service manual before work begins.
Use a qualified installer if any airbag, connector, fastening, control-alignment or steering-center step is unfamiliar. Stop driving if there is looseness, an airbag warning, an off-center wheel, unusual noise, or any horn, control or heating fault.

Before you order
New Plaid yoke FAQ
Does it fit Model 3 Highland or Model Y Juniper?
No. This listing covers legacy Model 3 through 2023.8 and the listed pre-Juniper Model Y production groups through 2025.02. Highland and Juniper require a different listing.
Why is Model Y separated by factory?
Tesla used different wheel configurations and changeover timing across US, China and Germany production. Choose both the build region and the listed production range.
Is the driver airbag included?
No. Reuse the vehicle's compatible original driver-airbag module. “Airbag Cover” refers only to the outer cover; choosing “No” means no new cover is supplied.
Does the wheel have heating?
The vehicle options are configured “Default by heated function.” Correct operation still depends on selecting the exact vehicle configuration and completing the correct electrical installation. No fixed heat-up time is promised.
Will a yoke feel the same as a round wheel?
No. The missing upper arc changes hand placement, especially during parking and tight turns. Many owners adapt, but the format is a preference rather than a universal ergonomic improvement.
Will an aftermarket wheel affect the Tesla warranty?
Warranty treatment depends on the region, vehicle terms and cause of a specific fault. TESERY cannot guarantee an aftermarket modification will never affect coverage. Keep the original parts and consult Tesla when coverage is a concern.
What should I know about customization and returns?
Configured or personalized wheels may be made for one customer, and installed products generally have restricted non-quality return eligibility. Verify fitment and options before ordering, keep the product uninstalled until checked, and review the current refund policy.
Confirm the build first. Then choose material and cover.
Vehicle group → grip material → airbag cover.
