Cybertruck Cabin Camp Beds - my DIY solution

[ldiebel]

Since 2019 when we got our first Tesla, we've been big fans of Tesla camping, since we can run heat or A/C so easily and efficiently.

In our M3, MY and MX, this was pretty easy, just put a mattress in the back.
I wanted this same functionality for the CT, but it wasn't easy.

I'm very much a functionality over form person, so I didn't have a problem drilling holes and doing what was required to get things the way I wanted. This is not for everyone though.

See the photos (in no particular order) for the best I've come up with so far.
For the rear, I took off the bottom seat plastic cover and found the lower seat frames had threaded bolt holes, two on the small side and three on the big side. I think they are M18x1.5. I used 65 mm bolts.

If anyone is interested, we could figure out a way to get the measurements for the holes in the bottom of the lower seat plastic cover.

With the foam getting us up to the windows, the length of the bed (window to window) is 5' 9". I'm 5' 10", so not quite enough, but pretty good. If I want to stretch out I can turn sideways a bit.

Beds are narrow but good enough for us. Not that much different than sharing the back of our MX, probably more than sharing the M3.

I'm guessing you guys go hiking/biking a lot? Nice setup.

Planning on iterating the design a few times to refine it?

Very cool design, but I’d be worried about damaging my cabin somehow!

I’m looking into the Breezer Window so I can just sleep in the bed With the rear window open. https://breezerwindows.com/shop/

Mostly just for long trips, sleeping overnight.
I'm sure to tweak a little, but it's pretty good.
Proved out pretty well on our hurricane cleanup trips.

Agreed. It is a little disconcerting to drill holes in our beautiful CT.
I have to remind myself that's it's a truck.
As a kid I used to install car stereos, I got pretty used to cutting things up for speakers, antenna's etc.

The breezer windows looks interesting....

great job overall... this is a very cool idea!

the design is interesting! love the thinking you put into how to make the bed sturdy.... can it be done without drilling holes into the CT? there should be a plastic Lego like modular design that doesn't require drilling ..

How to camp with a CT for Giants.
1) Set CT to extract mode
2) Attach a skirt around the CT with magnets
3) Sleep under the CT

Next project. An electric water heater shower set up?

I wish! I’ve already tried laying down in the back I’m 6’5”it doesn’t work Stretching out.?

I'm glad you did this so I'll know not to.

This. Also 6'5"


I have a slightly different idea to this and hope to spend some time on it in the coming months since work slows down in the last couple months of the year.

Is the installation DIY or by installer?

For a single person, sleeping on the rear seat floor floor on a 25 inch wide air mattress with the seats folded up works pretty good. Easy reach to the rear climate controls.

Perfect for FSD
