Carbon Fiber Dash Vent Housing

Tesla Roadster — Carbon Fiber Single-DIN Dash Vent Housing

This Carbon Fiber Dash Vent Housing replaces the factory Roadster single-DIN/vent surround with a lighter, stiffer, show-grade carbon piece.
Built in the USA by a renowned composites partner to original Tesla geometry, it drops in cleanly and delivers the sought-after carbon-fiber aesthetic while preserving OEM fit and function.

Prepreg & Autoclave — Why It Matters

• Higher structural performance — Typical hand layups run resin-rich (~50%). Prepreg targets ~35% resin for a tougher, stiffer laminate with less brittleness.
• Consistency & fit — Controlled heat/pressure curing minimizes voids and “resin-rich” or dry spots, yielding uniform thickness and precise fitment.
• Clean, repeatable process — Autoclave curing with precision tooling eliminates the mess and variability of wet-lay/vac-bag methods.
• Show-grade cosmetics — Low-porosity surface and crisp weave alignment for a deep, even Gloss or Satin clearcoat.

Highlights

• Direct-fit single-DIN housing — Built to OEM spec; accepts the factory vent registers and head unit opening.
• Made in USA — From a top-tier carbon shop trusted by premier marques (Lamborghini, Ferrari, McLaren).
• Light, rigid, durable — Carbon shell resists heat-cycle warpage common to aged plastics.
• Premium finish options — Choose Gloss for depth or Satin for a refined motorsport look.

*Verify your head-unit chassis depth and bracket style; some aftermarket radios may require spacer rings or bracket adjustment.

Install & Care

• Disconnect 12 V, remove existing trim and head unit per service guide; transfer vents and hardware to the new housing.
• Dry-fit and confirm clearance around HVAC controls and wiring harness before final seating.
• Clean with pH-neutral interior cleaners; avoid harsh solvents on the clearcoat.

Every Gruber carbon component is produced from dedicated molds to original Tesla specifications, delivering the fit, finish, and durability your Roadster deserves.
