SoCal Cal, That makes a lot of good sense. Activation included with module price ! Some body paid the $300 for the Homelink when it was bought new. Whose to say, one retail purchase includes only one activation? No one until they show us in writing. You folks thinking of doing this yourself, - I say, go for it.
Yeah, it's a great idea, but not sure if the service center was supposed to actually charge me. After I had purchased the module from eBay, I saw some instances of labor charges for activation. I actually called the service center and texted a mobile tech that had come to my house previously and both quoted a charge of ~$95. I purchased the module for $150 so was expecting only a savings of ~$50 which also required me to remove the bumper, order the bracket and bolt, etc. I was pleasantly surprised at the gratis activation, but was wondering what happens with the Y since the modules ordered directly from Tesla have warranties voided if the shipping boxes are opened by other than Tesla.
