You should ask your dad to go back to the Tesla online store now and try to order homelink from his account now, and see if it still says its not compatible. I am going to guess that his response would likely be "it doesnt say that now... strange".

No problems with the Homelink install on my 2023 MYP today. Took him about 15 minutes for install and program it for my garage doors.

I live two hours from nearest service. I ordered the opener with my Tesla app and a Tesla rep installed it - while parked in my garage.
My dad had another service appointment for a different issue, and the service advisor ordered the homelink for him. Given others’ experience, I expect the installation will be a non-issue.
Thanks everyone for your feedback.
You can buy an add on home link device for <$20 on Amazon that will retrofit your current opener.
Agree on sub fee. Really a tax to enable a button in the car. I created a series of shortcuts on my phone that determine my location and open/close the garage door without the subscription. No monthly fee and it just works.

My experience when I ordered my S.
I physically went to the SC and asked for 4 TPMS sensors since the car was to be delivered in December and wanted my winter tires and wheels to be ready for me to install as soon as I arrived home with her. Since I had not received a VIN yet, I was told I could not order them. Had a "discussion" with the fellow only to be told there is no way he could sell these to me without an associated VIN which the item is compatible. It then dawned on me that our Y has the same bluetooth sensors so I was able to order through the Y. All worked out in the end but only because I cheated the system.
If there policy has not changed since then, you will not be able to order or will get error messages when trying to order until you are assigned a VIN. The part must be compatible for the model of the VIN you supply. You could always ask someone you know that has the same model to order it for you.

I just bought a used one from eBay same model (1114984-00-B) for my 2023 Model Y LR picked up on December 2022. Installed seems fine and I'm able to added it on my car, however I noticed the right headlight is ON when the Homelink module is plugged in. Left headlight is off and whatever I try to do it's still not On. So I unplug the module and both headlights are ok. I try to setup the homelink but somehow I can't get pass the screen where you holding down the remote and link to the car. I'm on the latest software version 2023.12.5. I'm not sure what's going on, i checked the Service Alerts and got these:
VCFront_a096_OCS1P_MIA
VCRight_a238_lumbarValveMIA
EPBR_a096_OCS1P_MIA
Does anyone know what's happened?

I have a 2023 model Y built early January 2023. I bought the 'homeland' module from Tesla (phone app) after I took delivery of the car. Mobiel service came out and installed it in 20 minutes.
As a workaround, you can stick your garage door opener to the back of the car display.... Good luck.

We ended up sticking the opener in the door pocket with Velcro command strip. It is tucked in the back corner and super handy to open/close the garage door. To us, we decided it didn’t matter if we pushed the remote button or a button on the car screen. So saved ourselves $350 and used the hidden remote.

I've found this to be garage opener brand specific (not MyQ). For example, one of my doors is a DirectDrive and it doesn't always receive the first signal sent to it even by its own remote transmitter openers. In other words, even without MyQ the DirectDrive brand often takes 2 button presses before it catches the signal. That's not MyQ or Tesla's fault.
I do agree that if one has a garage opener brand like this, then it's not a perfect integration. I believe Homelink has issues with some brands too...
I only use MyQ on my phone (free) and I know that if the state doesn't change within about 30 seconds, then I have to crash close the app and try again (simulate pushing the remote button twice).
as a few other have stated, i got my module on eBay new with bracket and bolt for $210 after tax. simple DYI and programming through service mode. There was a forum member reselling these module for cheap, but last i checked, he wanted $275 now, which is not worth the trouble compared to just having tesla do it for $350.
LiveKey app and a little bit of automation to run a script on your phone can close any myQ garage door or open it based on your proximity to home. I wouldn’t recommend buying the homelike adapter for 210-350 or paying for the subscription. This can all be done for free. And it works. My experience is better than the myQ free trial experience.
I traded an early 21 MY for a 23 MY 2 weeks ago and took the homelink module from the old and installed on the new. It took less than 30 minutes all in and works on the 23 exactly as it did on the 21.
no doubt there are other more economical options and alternatives, I considered just sticking a $10 clicker to the back on my screen. For me, it was more about utilizing the integration vs having to rely on other work arounds (while possibly more reliable) and the auto folding mirrors is nice function for small garage parking (i'm sure there's a workaround for this as well)
