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 Halo: Combat Evolved (Bungie, 2001, Microsoft Xbox). Audio director Martin O'Donnell designed the shield-recharge whine as an auditory reward for surviving combat. Use case: your Tesla just recovered from a tough commute. Trivia: Martin O'Donnell composed Halo's entire score in six months after Bungie was acquired by Microsoft; the Gregorian-chant–and–orchestra sound was pitched as "epic space opera," which convinced Microsoft to use it as an Xbox launch title.
