    Dumb question -- Is it okay to drill above NEMA 14-50 outlet to install cable organizer?

    Yep, I was wrong. It happens. Wasn't the first time; certainly won't be the last time either. ☮️

    Dumb question -- Is it okay to drill above NEMA 14-50 outlet to install cable organizer?

    Apparently, I didn't explain things correctly on my initial post. The initial orientation of the outlet had the mobile connector wire and box extending upward above the outlet when plugged in. It is now hanging down when plugged in after maintenance guy flipped the outlet.

    Dumb question -- Is it okay to drill above NEMA 14-50 outlet to install cable organizer?

    I appreciate all the replies and helpful info. I decided to ask and the apartment's maintenance man had the outlet flipped within 30min. I haven't rented an apartment in probably 27yrs, so I had forgotten how nice it is to call someone else to fix everything. 😆 Thank you everyone!

    Dumb question -- Is it okay to drill above NEMA 14-50 outlet to install cable organizer?

    I have always had the Tesla wall connector since I bought my Model 3 over a year ago. I am now selling my house and have made the decision to leave the wall connector behind. I am renting an apartment for the next year, and it is new construction with a NEMA 14-50 outlet installed in the garage...

    Sentry Mode / Consider me fairly upset new M3 owner

    My two month, one week, old Model 3LR was backed into at some point since Friday. I kept the car parked at home in my garage from about 9pm Friday night until this morning. I get to work and discover damage to the front bumper cover. I'm sure you all can imagine exactly how I felt in that...

    2022.16.1.1 is now rolling out globally.

    I just received my first software update notification and it is for 2022.16.1.1. I am located in Oregon.

    Installing Wall Connector is better than NEMA 14-50

    +1 for this solid response to such a condescending post. Love it! 👍 I, too, have had the wall connector since day one and couldn’t imagine not having it. I don’t, however, understand why anyone would try and down another person who prefers one charging setup over the other. To each, his own. ☮️ ✌️

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I know this probably belongs in a different thread, and I created one in “M3 Interior / Exterior” but haven’t received any replies yet. Since I recently received “delivery” I’m going to see if the mods will let this stay here. 😊 I cleaned my windshield with invisible glass for the first time...

    New M3LR with 618mi and residue on windshield

    I picked up my M3LR on 5/9/2022 and it has barely been used much. I had a bird bomb (small one) today on the bottom of my windshield that the wiper smeared. I tried to clean the smear with Stoners Invisible Glass (aerosol), and now I have tiny speckled residue on the windshield. I used clean...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Yep, it’s simple. I got stupid lucky and one fell to me because the owner was out of the country for two weeks. It seems Tesla will not wait if you are unavailable when your number is called. 😂

    Jumping back in this thread after about a month with my M3LR. Does anyone know if TJ ever received his VIN?

    2022 Model 3 - No new update?

    Reviving this thread from the ☠️. I took delivery of M3LR on 5/9, but I don’t think I’ve received an update yet. I’ve been on wifi at home since day 2. Current version shows 2022.11.101.1. How much longer should it take?

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I graduated this afternoon! Pick up from PDX went smooth. No gaps, and only a couple of smudges on the headliner which they cleaned on the spot. Oh yeah, mine also came with matrix/global lamps as well as mobile connector. SA said they are delivering mobile connectors with every Tesla until the...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Today was a hectic day. I had just arrived home from grabbing a late breakfast around 10:30am PDT when I received a text stating my VIN had been assigned. I didn't have time to process things before my SA was calling me to go over final details. Apparently, my VIN was a cancellation because the...

    I agree 100%. I think discussion about financing is relevant to this thread, and have no problems with folks in here discussing it. ✌️

    I ordered 3/30 and EDD is 6/1-7/6

    I received a new EDD today. June 1 - July 6

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I, too, bought the wall connector when it was $495 and had it installed recently. My 3/30 OD has had EDD pushed back to Sep/Oct. The way things are going, the car will likely show up while I’m either in Mexico next month, or during my trip to GA in June. 🤣 I am a firm believer in not stressing...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I’m not convinced that configuration plays a part in EDD. It seems the one thing most folks getting VIN right now have in common is they ordered in early to mid February, or earlier. Am I missing something here?

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I had this installed yesterday. I cannot wait to use it! My EDD was a victim of the great 4/20 pushback (6/8-7/20 pushed to 9/4-10/30), so I won’t be charging a Tesla with it anytime soon. 😢

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I’m super bummed out to see how many of us woke up to bad news. I, too, had my EDD pushed back today. It is only my second update and first since the day after I ordered. My EDD went from June 8-July 20 to September 4-October 30! I could not believe it moved three months. 😡

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I also sold my vehicle already and wish I had held onto it a little longer. I didn’t expect the vehicle for a couple of months, but it seems a good many have been waiting longer and that makes me nervous.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    My wall connector arrived last week, and install is scheduled for next week. I had considered just rolling with a 14-50 outlet install, but wanted max charge rate capability. I’m still peeved because I wanted the mobile charger to keep in the vehicle for emergencies. I’d be SUPER upset if I had...

    Best practice for installing home charging?

    I ordered a wall connector last Friday afternoon, and have not yet received a shipping confirmation. Does it normally take this long for Tesla to ship a wall connector?

    Same here. App shows go to account with no changes there either.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    The lowest quote I could find here in Oregon is $1550.00. I'm running through my basement to the garage, and it is about a 70' run. It is absolutely ridiculous that I cannot find a lower quote. One place wanted $3048.00! :mad:

    I'm in Salem, OR - Maybe I should text my SA and see if they have any which match my order! 😄

    Wall Connector Installer for Salem, OR area?

    I have sent out requests for all of the Tesla preferred installers in my area, and only Smart Charge America has responded with a quote so far. I have searched this site and only found Smart Charge America mentioned in threads for Austin, TX. They quoted me $2,784.53 which seems high to me. The...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I’ve been lurking in here a bit, and finally decided to post. I had a 2019 F250 4x4 which I was commuting in (lol). Finally decided to sell it and order a M3LR. Ordered 3/30 - M3LR - Blue w/black interior and aero wheels - EDD is 6/8 thru 7/20 This wait is going to hurt.
