Looking for one in NJ also.
The installation is pretty easy if you wanted to just do it yourself. I put together a step by step video when I did my installation. Professional installation is fairly expensive so you can save yourself a lot of money by doing it yourself.
Just don't follow the video where I remove the trim on the rear hatch. In the video description, I added text of the steps others have suggested for fishing the cable through without having to remove the trim.
You can also pull down the existing conduit and squeeze the wires into it. If you attempt this, it will be the most difficult and time-consuming part of the whole process. Some have managed to re-attach the existing conduit, while others have used an additional strip of adhesive like this one.Thanks for the great vid! I'm considering it, but is there a way to do it without a 2nd conduit parallel to the existing one?
It's a little drive for you guys, but I use AFterFX Customs in Stamford, CT.
See: Home Page - AfterFX Customs
They've installed my Escort 9500ci radar/laser detector into both Model Ss I've owned as well as dashcams. They do tons of other customizations like tints and wheels and real high-end "show car" stuff.
They probably could do a dashcam install in about an hour while you wait, they charge $150/hour and have done a ton of Tesla's, so they know their way around the car.
But as mentioned above, it's pretty easy to do a dashcam install yourself.. it's a little harder to install the rear dashcam camera if you have a 2-channel system. In my case, I've installed the main unit up front (getting power from the OBDII port) and then had AfterFX install the rear camera because I always break stuff when removing trim panels, so I let them do that part of the install.
If you go, tell BJ that Hank sent you there.

Could I have a link to the conduit you used, please?
It's about an hour drive which I guess I can use that to calibrate the cameras. Did they get the power for the radar from the same OBDII port or they got it from the front mirror housing? I wonder if they would get the power for both dashcam and radar from the front mirror housing on a MX. Do you know if they have any experience with MX installs? Thanks Hank!
I don't know about MX really, so I don't know where power would/should be near the mirror housing. Regardless, I'd stay away from that area because of the sensitivity of the AP cameras. One guy on Facebook I saw had his AP cameras misaligned because the dashcam installer routed the cable past/near/through the cameras, causing his AP to fail.. Tesla refused to fix it under warranty because of the misrouted wires.
To power the radar, they tapped into the one of the two USB supply lines that run alongside the passenger footwell area/center console. If you remove the trim and pull back the carpet (where your left foot would be), there should be an accessory plug there specifically for tapping into for accessory power (this plug is not there on early cars, but you can still tap into the wires there for switched power). For a radar install, this is better than OBDII or the mirror housing connector, which is pretty lite-duty.
Here's the ready-made OBDII plug I used on Amazon: Amazon.com: GPSit OBD II OBD2 Power Adapter Harness: Car Electronics
And the cig adapter:
