I believe this is the last bit. I don't think I have anymore photos. this is where I mounted the LED. mounted display to the windshield. kind of weird picture I took. makes it look kind of crooked. but its straight if your wondering. cause when I looked at it I had to go back to...

ran passenger wire across to the driver side and down together at this point I have both jammers, receiver ran down and the GPS ran up. WHAT A MESS! :) all cleaned up!! much nicer now :)

rear bumper is off. this thing is filled with mud lol.. either the went "MUDDING" or this is where the dirt really likes to build up lol dilled new hole next to the 10MM bumper support bolt for rear receiver wire, grommet and sealed red "scratch" line) ran wire behind and out...

this is just what the plugs look like in the trunk.. I used RTV to sealant around them

routed wires down the hatch pillar down to the bottom grommet wire hanging out Is the wire I used to fish through NOW!!!! BE WARNED!!!!!!!!!! going through this grommet was NOT a good time. was NOT easy. IF you do this, be very very very careful. take your time! it...

thank you MP3MIKE. that did restart it :)

oh weird.. :) ill try that. I never messed with a tesla before. that's why I asked :)

the car is basically done. just need to out I couple last panels on.. but im not going to yet.. the big 17" screen hasn't turned on yet,... all day. I don't know how to turn it on. any things I can try??????? or ill have to call tesla service??? any help is much appreciated

now mounting the rear jammers. they are going to the hatch. because, which I didn't mention before. it probably for the best being since the customer already getting a new radar. they might but a new one again in the future. better for taking back out, no big holes just in case they change...

update! im just about done. everything is mounted and put back together. so ill update pictures when I can

I don't have a price. I could probably find out. but think maybe around $1800?

I don't have any info where the pervious radar was installed. the old radar is going back with the customer. yes you can tell the angel on the jammers are very poor.

don't get me wrong though. I would love to have them up higher. I thought about it. but I also wanted to cover up some of the nasty hole that was taken out. but I only have so much time with this car :/

I think I would agreed. a radar gun is going to get pointed at the center if the car. I believe the escort asks for the jammers to be even, level and father apart. and installing the jammers you cant just mount anywhere, without a ton of work, which I will admit. im not getting paid for...

this is the interface cable. gose from the box to the inside of the car, I will run what I need in the car and keep the excess wire out side back in the "engine bay" so I don't have clutter in the cab I did some exploring, and the hole that im using in the firewall in just behind the...

this here. I noticed the dirty flap hanging down was for the air cooling. the pervious installer must have missed that because its all dirty and torn. probably blocking some air way. who know how much this duct goes across the whole front. so keep that in mind. I pushed back up.

now starting on running wires and mounting the shifter box. which is nice and also could be a pain. but ive have good luck with it. and on this car, it works fine. the front shifters only have the one cord. which is like only 5' long. so you are limited on mounting the box in the engine bay...

now this is the start of the bracket im going to use to mount the jammers. mounting in the same opening as the last radar because they already cut big holes into the bumper. These are pieces of aluminum are "build yourself brackets" from the K40 radar kits. I have some left over so they are...

this is about the same spot the old was in. great spot! not much over hang. will work out great! already mounted and I put double back tape under the radar to raise the front to be level and more secure and one zip tie for safe keeping. (Not really needed)

NOW. everything at this point is apart and the old radar is out. its time to start on the new one. This is what I used to mount the defusers. because there are stick on style, I use 3M double back tape and 3m adhesion promoter. works great! when to properly install it of course :)

4 nuts for the lights (GREEN circle is just the other nut you cant see in the pic

now at this point. because my pics jump to the trunk. now I have everything removed. now pulling the old jammer out of the trunk remove these 4 t20's theres two light plugs. and the left circled piece is what going to be coming out. may need to pry on them. they hold the "chrome TESLA...

removing floor carpet I took the pic after I removed it. but to push pins on the passengers side headliner is held up. no removing this was a little tricky. mainly because it didn't want to budge. its held back by this bigger "clip" you can push the "tabs" on...

a little jump here.. but started taking the back apart pop and pry down. remove the 4 plugs the side panels have a t20 on each side this pillar side, pry and pop out two light plugs on each side for the back side carpet removing side carpet next to the back seat

so... in this picture is the tapped power source of the old radar. GREAT for me, because I don't have to source out a power. BAD! because I think they could have done a better job. (you'll see in the next few pictures) I wont go into details simply because of time. :/ if you want to...

DAY 3 of me having the car. ive done a lot more. I just need to get time to upload pictures.

so now I started taking the front trunk apart. remove these!! ;) you have here 10mm and 13mm bolts circled in red is the pervious radar wire.. I removed and will be installing the same way first!!!!!!!!!!! horrible picture... second. this is were the pervious wire was...

ill try and keep it updated. I would like to hide the display more. kind of what you are saying. but this is a customers car and I have to try and get it done in a orderly fashion while maintaining a professional grade :/ (as much as I would love to do in a perfect way) I guess they...

remover two T20's to remove the air duct piece two T20's to remove "cluster" trim. and two bolts at the top of it. which I need to take out to install the LED for the radar. (you will see later in the post

that's awesome. its such a difference doing it a second time for sure! making it up as you go is very fun (for me) but time consuming

pry down with your plastic tools to remove to pull the headliner down. pull down gently on the support. clips holding it now here, I already have both pillars out (driver and passengers, kick panel and side piece) this is the entire dash. prying up on the dash all the way...

first I want to say, im just installing a radar this thread is not a step by step thread. just a bunch of pictures of what and how I took this "car apart to install. I will add many clips and scratches were there from the previous installer. but this is what I did for my first tesla...

I guess you cant go back and edit your posts? the first two picture's are just the previous radar. now the third picture inside the car. I'm personally had so trouble with because I think "what a crap installation" I will say if you install that at your home, its fine. no big deal. but to...

UPDATE!!!!!!!!! The car showed up Monday, I've only had the car one day so far. (day off Tuesday). This is what I have done so far. I have to remove the previous passport first. so its a good thing and bad (regarding more work for me)

set back update. car is coming next week do to weather conditions, but good for me to research more :)

thanks appleguru. I did see and read through a thread on the bumper removal. I don't know it was yours or not. but great info none the less :) make the process easier. so I don't brake any clips lol.

HELLO! as the title says I will be installing a escort max ci 360 on, which I do believe a 2012 S sadly I don't own a tesla but I install accessories and mainly Mopar. GM, Jeep, and Chrysler vehicles. I coming to the fourm because ive never even touched a tesla yet!! so I thought I...
