So that's pretty stupid their policy and guidelines is to turn away customers and not give them their money for something that is retrofitable.
I swear I hate Tesla sometimes

Yeah I didn't even bother asking them to reconfig the car for matrix headlights so I paid somebody that has access to do that..Just order the parts to do it yourself. Problem solved.
Tesla has never been fond of doing one offs in the service center. This is nothing new. (Matrix headlight recode being another one)

And I responded back with well that's kind of silly then I would just like to purchase the hardware and I can do it myself then.
Waiting for a response

At one point tesla would retrofit upgrades to a nose cone S. Seats, they made and sold an adapter harnesses for this.They do repairs, not upgrades/modifications.

Find the part numbers, order them via a service request or walk in and make an OTC order for them.I cannot believe they do not have the capability to sell the hardware alone by itself. The most technologically advanced car company cannot sell their hardware to a paying customer, wtf man View attachment 1024924
I wouldn't know where to begin for looking at part numbers I would think that this would be a bulk part number for the retrofit and hopefully not individual partsFind the part numbers, order them via a service request or walk in and make an OTC order for them.
You’re (likely) speaking to someone in one of the many back rooms of a service center where they quickly answer and dismiss chat messages.
BMW was actually pretty good about supporting retrofits. Tesla does seem to be uniquely resistant to allowing stuffThey have been cracking down on a lot of things now. Which makes sense. If they do an upgrade, they are responsible for anything that goes wrong from that upgrade. Legacy manufactures have realized this (Tesla is still young) and tend not to do these customer upgrades to features/options that weren't included with that vehicle.
And you wonder why they won’t sell the retrofit to end users. They’re avoiding questions from people that can’t find the part numbers and order on their own.I wouldn't know where to begin for looking at part numbers I would think that this would be a bulk part number for the retrofit and hopefully not individual parts
But would definitely take this action if I could get the part numbers and just order the *sugar* myself
Tesla is just ridiculous when it comes to this *sugar*
In fairness, they don't actually seem to list the retrofit parts in the epcAnd you wonder why they won’t sell the retrofit to end users. They’re avoiding questions from people that can’t find the part numbers and order on their own.
To be fair:In fairness, they don't actually seem to list the retrofit parts in the epc
I don’t think Tesla gives a crap about any of that. They just don’t want to do anything past the bare minimum.To be fair:
1. Didn’t say epc.
2. How long did it take you to find it on eBay?
If someone can’t google, tesla is taking the stance of “I’m good. Enjoy your day” and avoiding a squeaky wheel/needy customer.
Thank you I just bought this kit from them, counter offered for $500In fairness, they don't actually seem to list the retrofit parts in the epc
I do see this on eBay though - Tesla Model 3 Power Trunk Retrofit Kit 2017-2023 1712460-00-A OEM NEW | eBay
They didn't say it wouldn't work, they said they wouldn't do it.I swear if I get this thing installed reconfigure with no hassle I feel like sending them a message back and saying by the way it does work.
