  1. The thing I don't hear you mention is the possibility that the Tesla door may be designed to use the module as part of the structure, and the screws are needed to carry the loads, rather than simply holding it in place. Your idea of snap in modules makes them simply passive dead weight, when you could be using them as structure as well, thus making the door lighter. Just like with the structural battery pack, more fasteners will be needed to transfer the load, where a regular battery pack could just set in place. Also, I understand that you hate fasteners, but I hate clips and snaps because after a few years they start breaking off, and if you have to remove the part, there is a good chance that it will no longer go back on propely because some Munro Snap has broken, and so you have to either replace the whole piece, baling wire it in, or let it rattle.
