For the center caps, you can take the stock ones off the wheel covers. You will need to purchse new bases for the caps. OpenSource EVParts has them for $15 (for all 4). Here's the link:

These look OEM and work great, have...
I think we all feel for OP and 100% understand his frustration. I have a friend that waited months for a replacement front fender for his R1S so itās not uncommon.
All that said, I donāt think the service/parts scarcity problem is a Rivian only issue. We had an eTron before our R1S and there...
I paid about $700 but that was for the Hawaii registration, not Use Tax. I'm leasing my R1S so (I think) that's why I didn't have to pay the HI Use Tax. Technically I never "purchased" the vehicle. There are others in this thread that purchased their R1 in Hawaii so hopefully one of them can...
We frequent a Sam's Club and I never went up to the 2nd floor parking until now. It's in the sun but very open and you can actually park kinda close to the elevator/escalator. That's the only hassle, getting back up to the 2nd floor with the cart, half the time that cart escalator thing is...
I get the āyeah but who makes itā a lot too. I think people are expecting our response to be a known automaker like Ford, GM, BMW, etc. Someone even assumed my R1S was made by Tesla.
Iāll be watching this thread. I also leased our R1S and expect the tires will need to be replaced once before we return it. I ended up with the 21ās without doing enough research and now find that thereās only a couple of options for replacements.
My preference would be to swap with someone...
I was thinking exactly the same thing even before Dump somehow won the election. Depending on how fast they kill the credit, this could actually help Rivian by accelerating sales next year. Again, this really would depend on how long it will take to remove the credit. If they can do it...
After about a week of owning our R1S the frunk wouldn't close automatically. It'd physically close then open again before it could latch. Kinda like something was stuck in there and a sensor was making the hood open up on its own (like a pinch sensor or something). It did this for a couple of...
Happened to me a couple of times. Took the widget off my iPhone and it hasn't happened since. Only widgets I leave on the phone now are the ones that show state of charge. It's a few extra clicks to get to unlock but I'm ok with that. Software bug or not, it's too dangerous to have the trunk...
Mahalo for all that info. Wheels pretty affordable! If you combine that and the variety of available 20" tires it's almost a no brainer to swap out the stock 21's. A replacement set of tires for the 21's run pretty high and as of now there are only 2 options ?. My only issue is I'm leasing my...
The tailgate on the R1S is a pain to try and protect. If possible do you have pics of your tailgate showing how you cut the LinerX up? Mahalo in advance!
I think it's just to keep rocks from flying through and impacting the fender behind the tire. My R1S has a piece of PPF behind the fender to help with chips. Came from the factory like that which is good but was already peeling off when I took delivery ?.
I've seen other vehicles with this...
This is odd but I have the opposite issue. The nav consistently shows the truck a little farther than it is IRL. When I come to a stop light the arrow that represents the truck slowly moves back to where I'm stopped. This happens pretty much all the time.
Just thought of something. Mine slime kit came in the onboard pump hose bag that's in the back underfloor storage (R1S). I've read some people store that slime kit in the frunk with the portable charger, etc. Due to how hot the frunk can get I would imagine if you store the slime kit there it...
So ā¦ā¦. A lot of us really miss a better maps app (Waze) and texting. We donāt miss CP or AA, just those two primary apps/functions. There are also other use cases like Teams/Zoom but I havenāt seen too many mentions. Regarding Messaging/Teams/Zoom, you shouldnāt be doing that while youāre...
First, thanks for all the info. I actually finally got my registration sorted out today (3 trips to the DMV). The clerk did say the lease makes filling out the paperwork more of a hassle. Apparently Rivian filled everything out correctly and I finally ended up with a clerk that knew what he...
