Hey Ya! · Tesla Light Show
by OutKast
André 3000 made the most joyful song of 2003 with an odd, lopsided bar in its loop, and nobody noticed because everybody was dancing. The show picks up the clap-heavy bounce with the signature bar leading and the front turn signals answering, busy but never frantic, and the fullest stretch lands in the middle during the famous breakdown. Bright, just under four minutes. It is tagged for New Year's Eve, and it works at any party where somebody needs a reason to get up.
How this one is choreographed
This is a busy show. The lights re-fire about 0.9 times a second, near the top of what the catalog runs. The peak is in the middle third, where roughly 39% of the car is lit against 36% at the top, then it eases back for the finish. Most of the work falls on the signature light bar and daytime running lights, re-firing about 1.1 times a second, with the front turn signals answering back at 1.1. It runs 3:55 and averages 81 of 255 across the light channels, a bright show that stays close to full through its busiest passages. About 20% of the light values are partial, toward the top of the range for this catalog, so the show leans on swells and dimming as much as on hits.
Measured from the exported light sequence for this show, not estimated from the song.
Get it for your Tesla
This show downloads for every Tesla: Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X, and Cybertruck. Preview it on your model with the View-on picker above, add it to your library, and it re-tailors to your car's lights automatically.
How to play it on your car
- Open the show above and add it to your library (remix it in the builder first if you want).
- Add your own copy of the song: an MP3/WAV you own. We distribute only the light pattern, never audio.
- Export the
.fseqbuilt for your model, then place your song next to it (or let the one-click USB writer do both). - Put both files in a
LightShowfolder on a USB drive. Or skip the manual steps: in Chrome/Edge, click 🔌 Write it to my USB drive for me right after exporting and we do it all, verified byte-for-byte. Then plug in and start it from Toybox → Light Show. Full walkthrough in the setup guide.
Car says Light Show instead of Custom Light Show, or the drive is not detected at all? That is the USB format, the folder name, or filenames that do not match. If it plays but drifts out of time, that is the audio sample rate. Fix both here.
