The FRUNK ASSEMBLY 1645350 - 00 - A is a specialized and high -
quality component, meticulously engineered for the 2021 Tesla Model
3. The frunk, or front trunk, is an integral part of the Tesla
Model 3's unique design, offering additional storage space. This
assembly comes as a complete unit, including all the necessary
parts to ensure a seamless and functional frunk operation.
This 1645350 - 00 - A frunk assembly is a comprehensive package. It
includes the frunk lid, latch mechanism, hinges, and all associated
hardware. The lid is crafted from high - strength materials,
providing durability and a sleek appearance that complements the
overall aesthetic of the Tesla Model 3. The latch mechanism is
designed for secure closure, ensuring that your frunk stays shut
during driving, while also allowing for easy and smooth opening.

enable a wide - range of motion, making access to the frunk
interior hassle - free.
Engineered to be an exact fit for the 2021 Tesla Model 3, this
frunk assembly guarantees a seamless integration with the vehicle's
body. The dimensions and mounting points are designed to match the
original factory specifications precisely. This means that during
installation, you can expect a straightforward process with no need
for modifications. The perfect fit not only ensures proper
functionality but also helps maintain the vehicle's structural
integrity and aerodynamics.
The frunk assembly is designed to enhance the usability of the
front trunk. The latch system is easy to operate, whether you're
using the interior release button or the key fob - activated option
(if your vehicle is equipped with such functionality). The hinges
are smooth - operating, allowing the frunk lid to open and close
quietly and effortlessly. Additionally, the assembly is designed to
work in harmony with the vehicle's electrical and sensor systems,
providing a reliable and convenient user experience. For example,
if your Model 3 has a sensor that detects if the frunk is properly
closed, this assembly is fully compatible, ensuring that the
vehicle's safety features remain intact.
Built to withstand the test of time and various driving conditions,
the 1645350 - 00 - A frunk assembly is constructed from top -
quality materials. The lid is made from a composite material that
is both lightweight and resistant to dents and scratches. The metal
components, such as the latch and hinges, are made from corrosion -
resistant steel, ensuring long - term reliability. This durability
means that you can rely on your frunk assembly to perform well,
even in harsh weather conditions or with frequent use.
- Vehicle Preparation
- Park your 2021 Tesla Model 3 on a flat and level surface. Engage
the parking brake and turn off the vehicle.
- If possible, disconnect the vehicle's 12V battery to prevent any
electrical malfunctions during the installation process. This step
is crucial for your safety and to avoid any potential damage to the
vehicle's electrical systems.
- Removal of Old Frunk Assembly (if applicable)
- Locate the bolts and nuts that secure the old frunk lid to the
hinges. These are typically located on the underside of the lid
near the hinge area. Use the appropriate socket wrench (usually a
10mm or 12mm socket) to remove these fasteners.
- Next, disconnect the latch mechanism from the old frunk lid. This
may involve removing a few small screws or clips. Be careful not to
lose any of the small parts.
- Once the lid is free from the hinges and latch, carefully lift it
off the vehicle. Set it aside in a safe place.
- Now, remove the hinges and latch mechanism from the vehicle body.
They are usually attached with bolts or screws. Remove these
fasteners and take out the old components.
- Installation of New Frunk Assembly
- Start by installing the new hinges onto the vehicle body. Align the
holes in the hinges with the pre - drilled holes on the vehicle.
Insert the bolts or screws provided with the new assembly and
tighten them to the recommended torque (usually around 9 - 12 Nm,
but refer to the specific instructions included with your
assembly).
- Attach the new latch mechanism to the vehicle body in the
appropriate location. Ensure that it is properly aligned and
secured. Use the provided hardware to fasten it in place.
- Carefully lift the new frunk lid and position it onto the newly
installed hinges. Align the holes in the lid with the holes in the
hinges. Insert the bolts or nuts and tighten them gradually, making
sure the lid is evenly positioned.
- Connect the latch mechanism to the frunk lid. Ensure that all
connections are secure and that the latch operates smoothly.
- If you disconnected the 12V battery, reconnect it now.
- Testing and Adjustment
- Test the opening and closing of the frunk. Use the interior release
button, key fob (if applicable), and any other means of activation.
Make sure the frunk opens and closes smoothly without any binding
or abnormal noises.
- If the frunk lid does not close evenly or there are issues with the
latch, make the necessary adjustments. You may need to slightly
loosen the bolts on the hinges or latch and re - position the
components until the frunk operates correctly.
