Hi all

I own a small company that creates accessories for EVs. I have a deep interest in the Mach-e and making it awesome, however my imagination is currently blocked and I was hoping to get some inspiration from the community.

The company I own is pimpmyev.com and it mostly sells Tesla accessories as the market is dominated by Tesla. I want to change this somehow and focus on all other brands and mostly want to concentrate on Ford with the Mach-e and upcoming lightening.

I know that the car is already awesome, however, there is always a need for certain things that the manufacturer didn't think of when launching the car. This is where companies like mine step in. I was hoping to crowd source some ideas to really help push the Mach-e into the mainstream.

Ideas are welcome. Looking forward to working with you all.

I might be interested in a tool bag or tote that fits perfectly in the front compartment tub. Perhaps a hard bag on the lower portion with removable soft bag or bags on top?

How about a soft sided cooler that fits in the frunk?

I'm up for anything that makes the ride quieter. I'd love to have a set of door pocket inserts (not just rubber pads for the bottom) that cover the inner side walls of each pocket to silence rattles of things in storage.

This!

Plug a sunglass holder liner that actually sticks and stays in when you open the sunglass holder!

An improved charging tray with just way taller dividers, but made out of rubber, if possible. The hard plastic ones rattle like crazy and my phone also just slides around and doesn’t charge.

Amazing, can you share a picture of which compartment you are referring to and an example of something you may have seen on the market that you want this accessory to look like?

Ok, we do noise reduction kits already Tesla that fit on the door and frunkhttp://tracking.pimpmyev.com/trunk edges. These reduce the noise to a certain extent but does not eliminate it. Are these rubber liners what you refer to or did I get that wrong?

I am working on custom side mirror puddle lights. You can design your own logos etc and replace the ones you have on your car. You can get anything in the projection really.

Where else would you like these illuminated ponies?

Ok, that sounds like something that could be done quickly. Can you share a video or images of the problem that you are having with the sunglasses holder?

Also please expand on the charging tray, what is the shortcoming there? If your phone too big?

We made one recently for the Tesla model S plaid and made it in rubber, the dimensions were not changed though as the placement is fixed. Here is an image of what this looks like.

Front and rear emblems for us non-GT folk. I know there is a Kickstarter on here but very high price. I'd personally like an illuminated outline to the emblem. Not sure how feasible, but one can dream. Bonus features would be controllable color and dimmable, otherwise just a white light.

After-market Ambient Lightning as someone already posted in this forum? Just as "plug & play" kit that doesn't require a lot of extra thinking

Apart of that maybe so e specific neckholders or replacement headrest that is more soft?

that sounds cool. Were exactly would you want it to fit? Would it fit in a corner? Velcro? Would you like it to completely take over the whole frunk space?
To me - a perfect frunk cooler would fill all or most of the space, act as an insulator of the frunk and have a top that closes or zips. Maybe something similar to the one pictured below without the side pockets, a "frunk fitting" design. and good "lift out" handles. BTW - welcome to the electric party!

So basically something like this but with a zipper top with insulation around the sides and bottom?

Sorry, only have tesla pics for reference.
