I'll take one of the kits when they are available.

At my request, they're also now selling the cables separately (some of us don't need the full set). Here are the links:

Short cable
Long cable

What is difference in long and short cables?
What determines which one to get?

+1. Been waiting for this for a while.

Thanks much for the preview instructions. Have you considered or tried mounting the camera on the lowest portion of the grill so that you might be able to see the bottom "ledge" in the camera view to give a little better perspective on where the front of the car actually is (similar to the way the rear camera sees the very edge of the rear bumper)?

I've tried that location and given the extreme wide angle view of the camera it makes very little difference. Plus it's more difficult to thread the cable.

The question I need to address is for cars that have the front license plate mounted in the low position. I don't think the bracket we're making will work for them but I do think the camera can be mounted in the same place as shown in the draft instructions, provided it sits a bit higher and just under the bottom of the nose cone. I'll probably need to check out a car with the plate mounted in that position before I finalize the instructions. I should have done that at the TeslaRoadTrip in DC last weekend, but I was so distracted by other things that I forgot.

Ah, ok, that makes sense. I forgot to take into account that the rear camera looks a bit downward as well, so that's why the rear bumper is visible in it. Thanks for the reply.

Good news. The replacement Chinese cables shipped yesterday to the ten people who had purchased the original cables that had the wrong pinouts. Of course, they're shipping free of any charge.
