If your 2015–2021 Tesla Model X’s right-hand rear trunk (cargo
area) shows signs of loose fit, uneven alignment, or difficulty
closing—or the original bracket that secures the rear aeroshield to
the trunk has cracked or bent—this CFN right-hand trunk bracket
assembly (matching OEM part 1049738-00-G) is the key to restoring
structural stability and proper trunk function. As an engineered
replacement (not Tesla OEM), it replicates the original bracket’s
dimensions, mounting points, and load-bearing capacity, ensuring
seamless integration with the Model X’s trunk and rear aeroshield
while preserving the vehicle’s aerodynamic integrity.
This bracket plays two critical roles: it acts as a “structural
anchor” for the rear trunk, keeping the cargo area aligned with the
vehicle’s body (preventing gaps that let in dust, water, or wind
noise) and securely fastens the rear aeroshield—a component that
optimizes airflow over the trunk, reducing drag and supporting EV
range. Unlike generic brackets that may be too weak or misaligned,
this CFN part mirrors the OEM’s design: its precision-machined
metal frame (same gauge as factory) handles the trunk’s weight and
aeroshield’s tension without bending, and pre-drilled holes align
perfectly with the trunk’s body panels and aeroshield mounting
points (no forced fitting or drilling new holes).
Durability is built for long-term use:
- Material: Heavy-duty steel with a corrosion-resistant zinc plating
(matching OEM)—tough enough to withstand constant trunk
opening/closing cycles, road vibrations, and exposure to rain or
road salt. It won’t rust, warp, or degrade over time, unlike cheap
aluminum or plastic alternatives that fail quickly.
- Design: The bracket’s curved contour matches the 2015–2021 Model X’s
trunk shape exactly, ensuring the aeroshield sits flush against the
trunk (no airflow disruption) and the trunk closes smoothly without
catching.
Installation requires basic hand tools (professional alignment
recommended for optimal fit):
- Open the Model X’s rear trunk and locate the original right-hand
bracket (mounted along the trunk’s rear edge, near the aeroshield).
- Remove the mounting screws (typically Torx T30) securing the old
bracket to the trunk and aeroshield, then detach the damaged part.
- Align the CFN bracket with the existing mounting holes—ensure it
sits flush against the trunk and aeroshield to avoid misalignment.
- Secure the bracket with the original screws (torque to OEM spec: 5
N·m), then test the trunk by opening and closing it to confirm
smooth operation and tight fit.
Note: This right-hand rear trunk bracket assembly is exclusively for 2015–2021 Tesla Model X. It won’t fit 2022+ Model X (revised trunk and aeroshield design)
or other Tesla models (3/Y/S). It’s ideal for replacing cracked,
bent, or missing original brackets—restoring trunk stability,
aeroshield function, and protecting your Model X’s cargo area from
environmental damage.
