CCS1 DIY retrofit: how long before adapter showed up in store?

[pnwadventures]

I just completed the CCS1 retrofit (no problems, quick/easy procedure) and my car now shows that it is CCS enabled.

How long should I expect it to take before the Tesla store allows me to purchase the adapter?

Usually within a day or two.

Looks like my account recognized the update by the following day, and I was able to place the order then.

Can you let me know how and where you got the parts? I have tried on multiple occasions to get my local service center to do the upgrade or sell the parts with no success.

I picked up the ECU at the local SC (Bellevue, WA), no questions asked. Called and ordered it over phone first.

I bought the “bundle of wires with a board” online. Install took ten minutes.

cost vs. having TSLA do it?

I got my charge port ECU from the Santa Clara, CA Service Center when I scheduled a pro-active 12V battery replacement through the app. I added a comment about if they had a 1537264-00-B ECU please bring it along.

Well, for now, we don't know exactly what Tesla Service is going to charge for this upgrade (AFAIK; stated cost is supposed to be $450 but that was announced a while ago). The bundle of wires I purchased back in Feb. 2022 for $50. The ECU from Tesla was $140 (I believe). The CCS1 adapter came via the South Korea source for $318.50.

edit: If $450 is correct, then it's $175 for the CCS adapter, $140 for the ECU and the rest for labor ($135). That plus the benefit of (hopefully) getting some sort of warranty on the parts/labor. My cost was $508.50 and I have to do all the work (and no warranty coverage).
