- [Perifractic] Oh, I trust it. It's definitely gonna stop. It's gonna stop. It's gonna stop. Oh, god. - [Narrator] In episode one,
Perifractic started turning his Tesla Model 3 into a nice
bit of KITT from Knight Rider. - [KITT] Hello Perifractic. - [Narrator] And in so doing
gave himself a perifracture. - God, that really hurt. - [Narrator] Made himself policeman bait and drove up his own nostril. Yet despite all that, he's still making what might be the
coolest car in the world. In the world, no, don't share this. I'm meant to be Cleremy Jerkson. (upbeat music) - Hello, chip dippers and
thanks for joining me and KITT and, of course, Puppyfractic in the back for another recipode, episode. KITT, introduce yourself. - [KITT] I'm the Knight
Industries 2000, sure enough. Ready to ramble, ready to
roll, ready to strut my stuff. - I promise you he's
never done that before. This, again, wasn't scripted. Puppyfractic, introduce herself. - I'm Knight Industries 2000. - Thought that was the
dog talking for a minute. Anyway, since that first episode, a grand master plan has emerged. - [KITT] It's worse than I imagined. - It's not. It's, I quite like it, actually. He's still cheeky, as you can tell, but here's what's gonna happen. Now you might have noticed
that the opening titles has been slowly evolving in
every episode we've done. In that first one where I went to look at the Knight Rider filming
locations, we basically used the same opening titles from the show but I just changed the people. And then in the last episode when we started turning this car into KITT or KITTesla, I started
dropping in shots from the car to replace those of KITT from the show. And then as you just saw in these opening titles,
I've added in shots from this episode, just little
teasers of what's coming up. What I want to do is by
the end of this project, in a couple of episodes time,
go to El Mirage Dry Lake which is where they filmed
the original opening titles. Go at the same time of day and we're gonna completely
remake the opening titles. Maybe not the turbo boost, but as much as possible using this car after it's had perhaps a
black wrap chrome delete and some other exterior improvements. - [KITT] Any colour as long as it's black. - Maybe to make them
really authentic, I'll even wear an '80s perm wig. Let me know what you think about that. - [KITT] Are you kidding me? - Not kidding. It's a genuine idea I've had, at least. - [KITT] I certainly hope not. - Oh, just never gets old. Now I've got some incredible
surprises coming up in this episode, so we better crack on because we've got a lot to do and it's, some of it's quite ambitious. So first, as you may have noticed and heard, we've made the interior sound and look a lot more like KITT, but what about the exterior? - [KITT] I believe there is
a considerable risk factor involved in this operation. (upbeat music) - What driver doesn't have a licence? A screwdriver. Don't get it. Oh. Hello, chip dippers. I was just folding my shoes. By the way, what part of
the car is the laziest? The wheels, because they're always tired. Anyway, cars like the Tesla Model Y and more recent Model 3s have a pedestrian speaker underneath, but it can also do some quite fun things. (mellow music) (farting sound) (laughs)
(beep) Here on the app, you can see me booking a service appointment to get
this speaker retrofitted. And believe it or not, they're
gonna come out to the house with a truck and actually
instal it in my driveway. This is one of the many
reasons that I love Tesla. It's basically the equivalent
of KITT's semi-driving to find him to perform repairs on him. Well, I was excited until they emailed me to say, actually my car is too old. Yeah forget 1982, this
relic was built in 2019. But then almost immediately,
I received an email from a company called Glydsphere and this might actually be a
bit of a blessing in disguise because had I been able to
add the KITT turbine sound, because after all he didn't
have an electric engine, he had a jet turbine engine. Had I been able to add that
using the Tesla speaker, it would only have played
the sound of one speed. However, the Glydsphere actually
speeds up and slows down and makes other artificial
intelligence modifications to the sound depending on
the speed you're travelling. It's actually designed as an enhancement over the Tesla system. It hasn't even been released yet but they've sent me a
pre-production sample. Oh it's heavy. Glydsphere. Oh, I said that so creepily. (glass breaking) Show everybody you're okay. Yeah, you'll be okay. Look at this. Oh yeah. Look at that. Got some little accessories. Oh, wow! So this is the power pack because this thing actually
is battery powered. And just what I need more of, USB cables. Now it comes with an on-off
key fob for the battery. If you have a Tesla, you
don't really have keys. Let this cat out of its bag. (cardboard toppling) Okay, let's see what comes out of here. Oh my gosh! Look at this. You wanna be a DJ? You can. Wow! Really heavy still. Well, let's see what's
going on under here. It's a serious bit of kit. No pun intended. There's always a pun intended. Power. So input one, I think,
comes from your phone because right now this
isn't Bluetooth compatible. So we're gonna have to
run a cable from the phone to play the sounds. And there's the other side of that. And those lights just show
you the various inputs. Now they tell me this is more than just a dumb Bluetooth
speaker or wired speaker. Apparently there's more in the algorithm and more going on inside here. It's got some special magnets that are top of the range, gonna give
us some incredible sound, and most of the magic happens
on the phone app itself. (upbeat music) Warning, this product contains chemicals known to the state of
California to cause cancer. It's been great knowing you all and thank you for subscribing
and supporting the Patreon. It will probably be fine. Warning, warning, cancer, la, la, la, la. All pretty self-explanatory. We'll figure it out. I will just show you the app. So. Series of different sounds here which I think are all
available from the library. And let's turn it on. So when we get it in our
car, this is the kind of thing we're gonna do. (digital music) Now you can see this is actually
something quite special. So let's simulate speeding up and slowing down just
by tilting the phone. Slow down. Imagine being the pedestrian. (upbeat music) That kind of sound's a
bit like KITT, anyway. Photon really does. And apparently, we should also be able to just trigger sounds
from the KITT app itself and they'll play through
the speaker as well while we're driving. However, I think we can go one better. At their website here, you can actually upload your own sounds. So you guessed it. I've selected a number of sounds, then it's gonna give us
this code and then we can go to our custom sounds, hit plus and it gives us a QR code scanner. So we're gonna scan the
website, not my sign and load those sounds into this app. So with that all done, you see, I've got three main sounds here. So, let's go and instal this in the car. Oh, I can't wait. Can you give me a hand? Thank you. Come on. (upbeat music) So, I haven't tested it yet. I think to test it out, it'd be more fun if we had a little helper. Here she is. Hello, Ladyfractic. - Hello. - Welcome back to the
Tesla Industries 2000. - Tesla, Tesla Industries. - T.I.T.T. for short. - Yep. (laughs) - She just got it.
- Yeah. - Well without further ado,
let's try out the EV speaker. Of course you have to
put your pin in first. - Of course. - Okay.
- Safety first. - Safety first. Okay, you ready? We have our sounds. (laughs) - Sounds great. - I wonder if the battery is on. Hang on. Okay. (machine beeping) How's this sound? I have to put it in drive. - That would help, yes. (upbeat music) Oh. Well this is awkward. (laughs) (upbeat music) Oh, it's a Tesla parade. It sounds like a spaceship. But it sounds like a rocket KITT. (laughs) - Well KITT had a turbine engine. - Ah, yes. - Now, we also have. - Yeah. As the engine suddenly
sounds like it's cut out. So scanner is off now, right? - Yes.
- Okay, ready? (KITT scanner "woo woo" sound) - Okay. That's very cool. (laughs) Oh, I love that. - [Perifractic] Now I have to synchronise when I'm doing it, but still. - Well at least you don't
have to use your hands when you steer. (upbeat music) (laughs) Very, very cool. Oh. - Okay, we have one more surprise. - Oh yeah?
- Let's hear this one. - Okay. (KITT "Super Pursuit" sounds play) (laughs) Oh, I love that. - Is this a car or a- - Spaceship. (upbeat music) - Spaceship! - This is never gonna get old. (upbeat music) - No, I'm not a drive with
a window down kind of guy but now I just want to keep
the window down the whole time. Roll on summer. - [KITT] Are you kidding me? (upbeat music) - I don't wanna overstate this too much but I really feel like
I'm David Hasselhof. - [KITT] I don't believe it. It's not possible. Is that you? - Oh, he thinks I am. He thinks I'm David Hasselhof. I guess even when he was filming, he didn't have the actual turbine sound. Wow, we've even got onr up on the making of the original show. - [KITT] My data banks
got nothing about it. - Oh, you didn't realise
it was a show, right? - [KITT] Whatever you say. - He doesn't believe me. (upbeat music) (Ladyfractic laughs) - Not that I don't trust him. I do. I forgot that I was visible so I was trying to be
cool that I was just like. (laughs) - As a plus, I didn't kill my wife, so. - Not this time. - [Perifractic] Indeed,
and just this SPM stands for super pursuit mode. As we all know, PCBWayyy
stands for great PCBs from five bucks and for perfect car buddy with added yoke doesn't it? (upbeat music) The brakes work. It's me! The other car looked just like mine. I think we'll have to
change the look of this one. - [Ladyfractic] I think you're right. (upbeat music) - So it also has other sounds
built in like this one. (digital EV sound) - [Ladyfractic] Licence and registration. - I'm with the foundation
for law and government. - Okay.
- Thank you. Also, here's my reg, - Oh.
- Also here's my registration. - Oh good. Did you know that those
lights are illegal? - What lights? (upbeat music) Now, if we turn that off, I'm also told that the actual KITT app will
work through the speakers. So that startup sound that
you heard originally was from Glydsphere app, but
now we're in the KITT app. So we can say things like. - [KITT] A little consideration
would be a beginning. - And we just have fun. (machine beeping) There's also a whole
list of commands here. Hey KITT, what do you
think about Ladyfractic? - Charming and cultured young woman. - Oh, wow. - It's even got all the sound
effects built into the app. So I could do the ejector seat. [Woosh] Welcome back. Or the dot matrix printer. (laughs) Beautiful. KITT, scanner. (machine beeping) What was it, KITT? - [KITT] Good heavens, and I
thought Michael was difficult. - (laughs) Wow. - Rude.
- I think he was talking to you.
- Oh. - You were charming a minute ago. So KITT, how do you like your new mouth? Oh, it's your hood. I guess you wear your hood on your head. - His bonnet. - [KITT] Why? - Because a hood is like a bonnet and a bonnet is English for hood. - [KITT] I'm afraid I don't
understand your point. - He's very American. - I'm just, yeah, I'm just being British. Don't worry about it, KITT. - [KITT] I'm sorry but the search of my data banks turned up negative. - [Perifractic] He's
trying to find the bonnet. - He's got a bee in his bonnet. - [KITT] Not at all. - Not at all. Remember, he can go on all day like this. - I mean. - [KITT] I don't think
we wanna find that out. - How does he get this so perfect? - I don't know. He's just built- - [KITT] Sometimes you're so insensitive. - Oh, I'm sorry. - Rude. - [KITT] What do you mean? - I mean you're rude. - [KITT] Very funny. - Har har har - Is there anything else
you'd like to say to KITT before we power down? - Hey KITT, I love you. - [KITT] It's a cross I have to bear. - All right. Well, we've got a few
more mods so we better get on with those. KITT, turbo boost. - [KITT] I'm at full power. (upbeat music) - Boys and their toys. - [Perifractic] Hey, do you need a ride? - Yeah. - [Perifractic] KITT, open the door. - [KITT] Whatever you say. - Trying to turn it off here. KITT, turn off. - [KITT] I can, yes,
but why would I want to? - Turn off. - [KITT] After all,
we're only human, right? - [Ladyfractic] Did he just get louder? But of course it isn't all perfect. Here's what happened when
Team17 Worms coder, Cris Blyth, and I went out to try summoning one night in a busy parking lot. - We're gonna ask for the
car to come and get us. - Where's my car? So I'm gonna make it come to me. - [Cris] You have to hold it. Holy snakeys. There's no way this is happening. (laughs) What? There's no one in that car. (beep) Whoa.
- Okay. - It just went around.
- We're gonna. - Dude. Dude, it just stops- - See, this is all part of the beta tests. - I know that but the
person that's in that car doesn't know it's being beta tested too. Like, who the, what's
wrong with that person? - Okay.
- This is amazing. - Now it's gonna get a bit more confident. (Cris laughs) - [Cris] Oh, oh, oh (beep). - Okay.
- All right. All right, come on car. - [Perifractic] Well
let's see what happens - [Cris] Oh, is it gonna turn? Dude. (laughs) - Quick jump in! - You failed, car. (laughs) - Sorry. Sorry about that. (laughs)
- We're beta testing... - But we're- - ...important
developments for the future of humanity! - [Cris] This was good
but not good enough. - I apologise again to those people. Oh, that was embarrassing. But strangely, when nobody's
watching, summoning seems to work perfectly. - [KITT] Is that a fact? - It is. Watch this. (upbeat music) Hi. How, oh. How did you overshoot? How was your Uber? It's good? Oh, you bought this? What did you buy? Let's see. Oh, your very own car. Do you have another Uber ride to go to? Say, bye, bye. Bye, bye. Off you go. (upbeat music) Bye. You should get behind the steering wheel. Go, go get behind the steering wheel. Okay. Mind that cliff. Good girl. Nice driving, baby. - [KITT] No comment. - He's jealous. (upbeat music) - [KITT] Sorry Michael. - Well, these computer
things are just a waste of time anyway. - Okay, now I'm really
excited about this mod and I know a few of you
are too from the comments in the last video, but I showed this meme. (upbeat music) Oh, won't I? Yep, I like a challenge
and it just so happens that I've got some Atari
joysticks just like, it looked like David Hasselhof was using. And wouldn't it be lovely if
we could get this working? - [KITT] A very good question. - Yes. Problem is, it's got an old
school Atari nine-pin plug on the end and- - [KITT] Whatever you say. - No, it does. Look. (crickets chirping) Now we know from other
videos that the Tesla games that are on offer here, not
quite a lot of them, will work with modern game pads. - [KITT] Are you quite sure? - Yeah, I've seen the videos. A new addition for example is Sonic. But the episode that that meme was taken from was called Deadly Manoeuvres. Now in that episode, Michael
was playing a racing game and there are racing games on here. For example, Beach Buggy Racing Two. Allow me to demonstrate. Okay, here we go. (upbeat music) I like that black one. Looks like KITT. Gives me an idea. But first, That sounds like KITT. That's weird. (upbeat music) That's, that really sounds
like KITT, doesn't it? I don't remember that. (upbeat music) Oh, this is frustrating. Oh. Can someone move this pigeon? Oil slick. This is very Knight Rider actually. Yes. Sixth place out of six. (laughs) You can tell I'm an old
school, retro gamer, but it is a lot of fun, isn't it? And fun for all the family in fact. Let's see how Josiefractic's
getting on with her games. (upbeat music) - Steer right. Steer left. (laughs) Okay. Oh. (laughs) Oh no, I think I hit a seagull. Am I not supposed to hit the seagulls or am I supposed to hit the seagulls? I feel like I probably
shouldn't hit the seagulls. Okay, this is a lot harder than it looks. They want you to like go, go
ham with the steering wheel. No, wrong way. (laughs) So bad. It's so bad. Okay. [Scottish Accent] You're
going the right way for a smack bottom! Oh no, I hit a chicken. (upbeat music) - [Ladyfractic] Oh, you're on fire. Nice. - Sorry, little guy. What is even happening? Wonkerville Farm. - [Perifractic] Wait, I
just remembered we're meant to be doing something
- Oh no. - to do with Atari joysticks, aren't we? It's easy to get distracted. But if you'd like to see more of - Josie! - [Perifractic] we'll be sharing her full 20-minute play session exclusively with supporters soon. - This definitely seems
like a more long term game. - Great fun there, thank you ladies. But back to our conundrum of
using Atari eight-bit joysticks with nine-pin plugs. How do we use this? Well, Retronic Design
sent me this adapter. There's actually a USB to nine-pin adapter specially designed to allow you to play with
old joysticks on new devices. Let's see if it works in here. So firstly, we connect the
joystick to the adapter and then in here are the USB ports. (upbeat music) - [KITT] I must say I
have my doubts about this. - Let's see. Now I'm wearing an Asteroids T-shirt so why don't we play Centipede? No, I'm kidding. Play Asteroids. I have no idea if this is gonna work. So thanks for discovering with me. Push start. (upbeat music) (laughs) It actually works. I can fire. I can go left, right, rotate, forward. That's it. That's all the controls. (laughs) We are like Michael. We're like playing
eight-bit games in KITTesla. Yes. In the meantime, this does make a very handy joystick storage area. (upbeat music) And quite fittingly, I
think, Tesla recently removed the ability to play
games with the game pad while you're driving and quite rightly so. We don't want it to actually
become a deadly manoeuvre. - [KITT] Very funny. (upbeat music) - Now Hansshow makes this
display and they're gonna send it to me when they're back in stock, but I'm also talking to
them about customising it to look more like a KITT. That could be kind of cool. - [KITT] Good idea. - Thank you. Anyway, Mio also made this Knight Rider GPS
unit, navigation unit but to me personally, I think it looks a little plasticky and cheesy. After all, when Michael was driving with KITT, he didn't
have Knight Rider written on the dashboard in front of him. - [KITT] Anything in particular
you want me to look for? - Well, as you asked KITT, I think for now it would be quite cool if we could convert the
Tesla screen into a kind of KITT style display screen. After all, I love the Tesla. I'm not trying to take
the Tesla out of this. It is KITTesla after all. But keeping the stock
stuff as much as possible and making it feel more like
KITT, I think, is the key to this project. Now I did find this,
the peacemaker package, and it lets you press buttons and stuff. Obviously nothing happens but it's pretty cool for the effect. But I did find this on YouTube. This is by the Knight Rider store guys. Now Tesla allows you
to watch YouTube videos when you're parked only for safety reasons and quite rightly as well. So then I thought, what
if I converted that video into a big GIF? G as in giraffe. - [KITT] Do you really think so? - What? The maker of the GIF, the creator of the GIF said so himself. It's GIF, it's not a giraffe. Anyway, we could go on
forever with that debate and we'll never ever solve it, but what if I made a big GIF
slash GIF of that video file because you can browse the
web while you're driving. We could then have that
playing on the display while we drive. (upbeat music) 'JIF'. (drum rolling) (laughs) Oh, yeah. And if we want the user interface to match a little better,
just turn to the dark side. (upbeat music) Yes. (machine beeping) I tell you, with that and
the turbine sound outside, that on the screen, the
sounds coming from KITT. - [KITT] It's worse than I imagined. - It's better than I ever imagined. Wow. (upbeat music) Hey baby. You're such a good girl. I love you. - [KITT] Thank you. The feeling's mutual. - That's very sweet but
I was talking to my dog. - [KITT] No comment. - Awkward. Now last but not least, I
think I've come up with a way to talk to my wristwatch
like Michael would talk to KITT through the wristwatch,
and do various things like, pop the trunk,
KITT, pop the front, KITT. Now of course there are
watch faces available that mimic the style of Michael's watch but they don't actually
do anything with your car. But there's an app for that too. So this is the app. It's called Watch for Tesla and it lets you perform
various functions not only through the app but through Siri. When you're calling Siri
from the watch, you can either say, "Hey Siri,
what's the weather?" - [KITT] I think so. - [Siri] It's currently
clear and 61 degrees. - Too many AIs in this car. But I've realised with Watch for Tesla, I can rename the
voice command to say KITT first. So I can literally say
KITT, pop the trunk. However, I would have to
say hey Siri before that. Hey Siri, hey KITT, pop, it doesn't sound, it doesn't feel right. However, if you notice
in the show, Michael always holds the watch and
seems to be pressing a button, which means I don't have to say hey Siri. I can literally just hold
the button and say hey KITT. Let's try it out.
- I'm speechless. (Perifractic laughs) - All right, well let's
see if this works starting with the front boot, the froot. Hey KITT, pop the trunk. Oh. No, no, no. Stop, cancel. It's not the trunk. Frunk. But we're gonna call it
what Michael calls it in the show, the hood. Hey KITT, pop the hood. (upbeat music) And I like that it reveals
the strobe light as well. Now with this particular
hood, oh a speaker. I forgot about that. I have to open it manually, but Hansshow also do an auto opening,
auto closing front trunk and front and back boot. So hopefully they're gonna send us those, which means when we pop the trunk and pop the boot, it will actually go up and down all by itself. Hey KITT, close the frunk. Sounds weird. Hey KITT, super pursuit mode. (upbeat music) Love it. Love it. (Ladyfractic laughs) That's a lot of fun and all well and good but it's kind of simplistic in a way. But if I could actually
use the watch to tell KITT to come to me just like
Michael did in the show. Now admittedly, my car
might summon a bit slower than KITT right now, but
in the future, this is only gonna get better. So with the phone companion to the watch app updated, let's see if our future-proofed
KITT would actually come and get me just from the watch. - KITT? KITT! KITT! - Okay, I've got to get into character like I'm Michael and I've been chased by baddies with guns every week, and they also have '80s perms, which is frankly more terrifying. Okay, in character. Hey KITT, I need you buddy. (laughs) Look at that. Oh, wow. All just with my watch. Michael Knight. Okay, it should stop just here. Er it should sense me. You know, it obviously
will detect pedestrians. It should stop right here. No I trust it. It's definitely gonna stop. It's gonna stop. It's gonna stop. Oh, god. Call 999. What's the number? I'm scared. KITT, stop. Hey Siri, hey Siri, Simon says stop. Oh, hey KITT, stop. What, no not here. Hey KITT, I need you buddy. Ow scratching my head. (huffing) Okay. I'll be okay. I'm okay. (air whooshing) I'm cool. I'm Michael Knight. Ugh I've had a Michael fright. (harp music) Oh, sorry. I was just kind of imagining
how ironic it would be if I asked KITT for
help and he ran me over. Well back to reality. Let's try this out. Hey KITT, I need you buddy. (suspense music) (laughs) And he should stop right in front of me. Perfect. This is amazing. (brakes screeching) - [KITT] I am the voice of Knight Industries
2000's microprocessor. - But don't worry. After molecular bonded
shell had regenerated, everything was fine. Now, there's almost no limit to the number of commands you can add
to the watch in this way. Having KITT start the air
conditioning on a hot day, for example, has become
super simple for me. Now in case you're wondering
how it really might respond if you're in the way and you ask it to keep driving forward, well,
it just drives around you. Magical. By the way, the Tesla already responds to 180 voice commands and
sometimes if I combine them with KITT listening at
the same time, it's almost as if he's performing
those functions for me. So watch this. If I hold the button for Tesla but talk, KITT will
think I'm talking to him and the thing will actually work. KITT, open the glove box. - [KITT] Anything in particular
you want me to look for? (Perifractic laughs) - This is too much fun, guys. I'm having too much fun. I may have to cancel episode three. KITT, my bum is cold. - [KITT] I need more data
for my information banks. - What do you want, a photo? - [KITT] Very funny. (Perifractic laughs) - I don't need to script
any of my videos anymore. It's incredible. But when that happens and things go off in the car, it really feels
like he is granting my every wish and- - [KITT] I certainly hope so. - Thank you. In fact, this whole project is kind of like a dream come true. And I just wanna thank you
guys sincerely for joining me for the ride and just
making it all the more fun with your comments and your ideas. Well make sure you're
subscribed all the way. Click the bell and- - [KITT] Good idea. - I thought you'd agree. Because in the next
episode I'm gonna be doing some magical exterior modifications to make this look even
more like 2022 version of KITT 40 years later. And I'll see you later. Thanks for watching. Support for early access
below and cheerio. KITT, super pursuit mode. (machine beeping) (upbeat music)
