Looks like it's too late to edit my previous post (Anyone know the timing for that?). Here's the link to my album in dropbox: Dropbox - ModelS - Blackvue Install Let me know if anyone has trouble viewing it or questions. Again my apologies for the late response!

Sorry guys, I've been on work travel the past couple of weeks. I'm not sure what's going on with the pics. I'll try to add them all in an album. Will post back with link when it's done. I did the install myself - very slowly, because I'm a newbie and didn't want to ruin anything. I started at...

I don't have a sunroof. I just tucked it under the weather stripping and used trim tools to pry open the lining enough to push the cables in near the headliner. I "jumped the gap" near the hatch and tucked the rest of the cable length under the plastic panel as others have done. Here are some...

@Fezzik Yes! I got it out (and without breaking anything, lol). The metal clips didn't come down with the plastic piece and some of the mini prongs were bent in different directions, so I could see where the resistance was coming from. I pulled them out and bent them back to where they could...

I'm gonna give it a try this weekend. I already have the rest of the wiring done for both cameras. This is the final piece!

That's great news! It'll be worth the wait. Ours arrived with the piano black decor.

Ah I see, that's good to know. So I just need to pull straight down and hard? I'll give it another try. Thanks!

Thanks, yes I'm trying to remove the mirror base. Do you know roughly where those 3 points are?

Thank you for these instructions and pics, they've been so useful! I'm on the part where you remove the plastic cover above the rear view mirror. The front sides came down a little after a good amount of pressure, but I'm concerned I might break the clips. Could you provide any tips on how to...

Thanks. :) Nope, left windshield as is...

Thanks! It's Pinnacle 30 on front sides, 15 on rear sides and back.

That's great! Hopefully you won't have to wait much longer! Here's a few more from delivery day and right after we had the windows tinted. It's been rainy all week, I'll take some more after I give her a good bath.

Pinnacle 30 front sides, 15 on rear sides & back. Lone Star Window Tinting (Hurst, TX) did an excellent job.

Great looking app! I'm up for being an Android tester when you're ready. Also have a Moto360 watch.

Delayed orders sometimes have the opportunity to have their delivery dates moved up. I'm not sure how the priority works in those cases.. When you cancel and reorder, you go to the end of the line.

Yep it's that simple but I've found you must tap it within 30 seconds or so, or it won't respond. Also, after maybe 20 minutes, the car will turn off and the passenger will need to tap the screen again, quickly. I haven't read up on the timing of these things. Sadly your last post has some...

Have the passenger tap the screen right after you close the driver side door.

Thanks, cute idea, Lynne! I'm going to look those up.

I installed it via the vacant 12v connector yesterday and it works great! Thanks everyone for the idea and tips. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

Your modified cable looks really good! You're right, I do need a smaller 2A fuse. Everything else seems pretty doable. Thank you and @PattyChuck as well for breaking it down. I think I'm ready to get started!

Thanks araxara, I've been looking at that thread as well. I agree, everything that is shown is great. However, I was hoping someone could break down the fuse holder part since I've never used one before. I bought the suggested 5x20mm holder but the 2A fuse from the blackvue doesn't seem to fit...

Thank you all for the really nice descriptions and photos. I'm leaning towards @PattyChuck's method because I'm not very handy. I bought a Blackvue dash cam and would like to take advantage of the vacant 12V connector above, but I'm a complete noob when it comes to electrical mods. I bought a...

Congrats, RTU! I couldn't help but notice you have fog lights. I thought they removed those from production. :confused: That's awesome. Was it M5 blue? That's my dream shade for a car. Sounds like a new color may be available to the rest of us eventually. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

Maybe TM will make a big deal out of the 10,000th car sold as opposed to VIN #10000 since they have a ton of show cars and now a loaner fleet.

Good. I find that word redunkulous.

@jaysquyres: This is off-topic but I really like your tint. If you don't mind, could you tell me the details on where you got it done, the brand, levels on each window and how much did it cost? Thanks in advance.

jaysquyres, I love seeing pictures of the white Model S's! Your tint looks great. Can you provide details on what kind it is and where you got it done? I'm in Fort Worth and will be getting mine in June. Thanks!

Hi All, first time poster here. I'm getting a white MS and thinking about naming it, Light or Lightning.
