So I may have found someone who is an employee at Tesla. I gave them a huge part list and their reply was. Let me talk to my parts manager. So hopefully I'll be able to grab these cameras off of them. The side marker cameras may have made a difference if lane centering???? I'm not forced to...

So how is everyone sourcing these cameras? Via Tesla or ebay or??? I've been looking for the B pillar cameras. So far no luck trying to find these online. It sucks you aren't able to order parts from Tesla via the web.

So an update to this post. I installed a 750w inverter on the front passenger fuse panel. It was a simple task minus the interior trim panels. This setup will be temporary. Right now my work has us sitting in the parking lot. Only being called when needed. Once my job is back to normal...

I'm going to tap into the passenger side kick panel fuse location. Using a double fuse tap. Also to answer the question. The laptop is a HP Omen gaming laptop...

So playing games on my laptop it draws 189.3 watts. Im just disappointed that the 12v outlet is limited to 150w continuous and 180w peak.

I figure if the fuse is 20A then the wire behind it can handle the 200w load at 12v. Worse case I call the fire department, best case I can charge my laptop.

We just had a power outage the other day. I was thinking about my 100kwh battery just sitting on the driveway. Then I thought about the Tesla Powerwall and how much that cost. Seems the car could supply your needs via the on board inverter. I'm to scared to mess with it. On a side note I...

So dell does have a DC to DC 12v charger. Only issue is that it still requires the same 200ws. I've modified my other ICE cars and didn't think anything of it. Being that this is nothing but computers and batteries. I'm trying to not brick my car and need a SC visit. I thought about...

So I've been deep in the forums for a few hours. I don't need the 1000 plus watt inverter install. I'm looking to just have 200w. My laptop draws a maximum of 188.3 watts at peak. The 12v is limited to 150w. Any ideas on how to add a 200w outlet? I've also browsed the amp forums and those...

Honestly its not a terrible install. I watched the Model 3 videos. I might do a recap video. I need to change out my HEPA filter. Since im going to be that deep in the car the least I can do is make a short video.

Do you live near LA?

Here is the video of the installed Frunk

Functional check on Model S 2016 power frunk install

Hi everyone I currently just installed the power frunk mod on my Model S. If anyone is in LA and would like it done let me know. It was a bit of a pain to get it done as I was unable to find a good install video. However I like the power option. This is how the car should come from the...
