Custom lock sounds need the car’s external pedestrian-warning speaker (Model 3 built September 2019 or later, Model S and Model X from the 2021 refresh, every Model Y and Cybertruck) and software 2023.44 or later.

How to install: download the file (it is already named LockChime.wav), copy it to Boombox/LockChime.wav on a FAT32 or exFAT USB drive, plug it into a USB port that carries data (the glovebox port on newer cars; rear ports only charge), and open Toybox → Boombox → Lock Sound, then choose USB.

source The Transformers animated series (Hasbro / Sunbow Productions, 1984–1987). A second iconic transformation clip from the same G1 era, capturing the metallic clank-and-whoosh of vehicles converting to robot form. Use case: your Tesla's second form revealed. Trivia: Optimus Prime's G1 transformation sound has been precisely recreated in every live-action Transformers film (Michael Bay, 2007–2017) as a deliberate nostalgia callback.
