Hi Guys,
This is my teardown video of a Tesla Model 3 or Y adaptive headlight. Its a pretty cool piece of tech and i enjoyed tearing it to pieces and having a look around. The adaptive headlights were added in the 2021 Model 3 but the functionality is yet to be activated. As a standard headlight they are one of the best I've seen but once fully activated they will be one of the best headlights available. In this video you will see all of the internal and external components. I will do my best to explain how it all works. This is pretty much a live teardown so I am seeing most of these components for the first time during the video. I wanted to take you along for the ride!

Please comment if you have any questions.
