Correct, they say they have no way not to include it. I believe them, and don't blame the people at the shop, I'm sure it's just an oversight on a corporate level.They provided you with a quote including the adapter?

Perhaps take it and return only the part itself after the installation to the parts department? I'm sure they can let you do that..Correct, they say they have no way not to include it. I believe them, and don't blame the people at the shop, I'm sure it's just an oversight on a corporate level.
How is it an oversight? They specifically tried to not sell an adapter to vehicles that couldn't use it. If you got one, wouldn't you have had to go around their process? (Like an import from South Korea, or ordering against a different vehicle.)Correct, they say they have no way not to include it.

Tesla does sell the CCS adapter by itself for newer vehicles that don't need the CCS retrofit. In households that have multiple Teslas, such as ours, we have two newer Teslas that can use the CCS adapter without needing a retrofit. We have an older Model S that needs the retrofit. Since we don't need a CCS adapter for every vehicle, we'd like to be able to just purchase the CCS retrofit by itself and use the CCS adapter that we already purchased.How is it an oversight?

Interesting that other people are being quoted for just the retrofit, when they want the $450 package deal.
That would be nice, but I figure most people will treat it like the J-1772 adapter, and it stays in the car all the time. But I suppose maybe you only want to use it on trips, and just move it from vehicle to vehicle.Tesla should offer the retrofit without the CCS adapter for those who already purchased the adapter for one of their other Tesla vehicles.
Fortunately the J-1772 comes free with every car. Those that need an extra or to replace one only need to spend $50 to buy an new one. Since the CCS adapter has been priced from $175 to $250 or more, I can understand why people don't want to buy another one to have one in every car. I guess Tesla could claim the one included in the $450 retrofit is "free" but there are probably hundreds, if not thousands of people who have already purchased one and don't need it. Since Tesla stopped including 14-50 adapters and even mobile connectors, it seems odd that they are forcing the CCS adapter to be purchased as part of the retrofit. Hopefully they'll have another option for those who don't need another adapter.That would be nice, but I figure most people will treat it like the J-1772 adapter, and it stays in the car all the time.

Might want them to recheck that. The current info and my own quote is that the kit itself , which includes the adapter, is $450.00 and labor and tax will be added to that. So about $540.I have scheduled my appointment for my 1st Gen X. The invoice shows $290 plus tax.

The $450 is supposed to include labor, only tax should be added to it.which includes the adapter, is $450.00 and labor and tax will be added to that. So about $540.
I'll have to check on that. Thanks.The $450 is supposed to include labor, only tax should be added to it.
Are you able to share a redacted copy of the invoice? I would like to share it with my service center so they can update it similar to ^I have scheduled my appointment for my 1st Gen X. The invoice shows $290 plus tax.

Me too--I am in the same boat where they want me to buy the full bundle again.Are you able to share a redacted copy of the invoice? I would like to share it with my service center so they can update it similar to ^
Count me in as another owner of two teslas. I already have the adapter for one of the vehicles and only need a retro fit for the older model.How is it an oversight?

If you order it from the online store it’s $450 and then you schedule it with serviceI just received a quote for $450 and the invoice lists the CCS adapter as included. But I texted Tesla and they claim I must buy the adapter separately. What gives?
But it really only see if you $15 so it’s not that big a dealIf you order it from the online store it’s $450 and then you schedule it with service
Very similar to the way your order other accessories online that have to be installed at the service center like tow hitches…
Did you manage to get the retrofit done through Tesla?Just got invoice for $290 plus tax to install the retrofit on my Model S. Is this the normal price?
