Just did the trial for MyQ Tesla garage opener integration, on Holiday Update 2022.44.25.1.If I have to pay for MyQ, ill be doing this.
I just picked up a module off ebay, sounds like it's getting double sided taped to the crash bar!My 22 Model 3 had the bracket at the front, so the bumper "should" be removed. You can either remove it, try to bend your arm around the crash bar to bolt it in, or just tape it on the crash bar itself (was my option).
You also had a known fixed cost. With this new subscription, who knows? Will it go up over time because of inflation and other costs? Historically, nearly every subscription service does this, so I would expect this service to do the same. It could also go down if there is too much backlash, or have periodic sales to spur new subscriptions much like Hulu, etc, do each year at Black Friday to entice new customers. They could be a-holes and go the Cable TV route - making long-term customers ineligible for promotions, but giving much better deals to new customers. And of course a second major company/service putting up serious competition could also dramatically change the price.I also realize the irony that I spent the same amount of money for the hardware. BUT, at least I will be able to use this indefinitely.
I agree, plus you can get modules on ebay for much cheaper and install yourself.You also had a known fixed cost. With this new subscription, who knows?

Paying for HomeLink once and being done with it just avoids all of that. Worth it IMHO.
I've removed HL module from my 2018 Model 3 - removing the bumper fascia is PITA, otherwise reinstall is easy - because I installed the module within the frunk and not out in front of the crash beam.I have Homelink installed (via Tesla mobile service tech) in my 2020 Model 3 and it works great.
Last night, I ordered a new Model 3, and would like to transfer my old unit to the new car. How tough is the actual removal/re-installation? I'm fairly handy, have plenty of tools.
I guess I'm just looking for a good set of DIY instructions and a relative difficulty level. I seem to remember when my unit was original installed, tech had to remove the front bumper cover, which seems like pain.
Oof. Was hoping I didn't have to remove the bumper fascia.I've removed HL module from my 2018 Model 3 - removing the bumper fascia is PITA, otherwise reinstall is easy - because I installed the module within the frunk and not out in front of the crash beam.
I recommend looking at the bumper fascia removal/install guide in from the Service Manual: Tesla SSO - Sign In
Yes that's it and this specifically:Oof. Was hoping I didn't have to remove the bumper fascia.
I do have access to the service manual via that link. I think these are the relevant instructions? https://service.tesla.com/docs/Mode...tml#GUID-7A57FF6F-1E44-4F2F-BB2A-7180C7182DFA
I see people installing them under the front liner, but it's unclear to me that the required wiring harness is easily accessible, if I put it in there.
Terrific info for this thread.Yes that's it and this specifically:
The HL harness/plug is tucked next to the hood latch module under the frunk.
