Hey, so jist confirming but you order the WRONG right aide trim piece from the beginning???
Did you finaliE the CORRECT right side trim part number? Is CORRECT part number now 16661181-00-A???

When you say "they revised it", are you talking about Tesla changing identifying part numbers? Or your service rep typing in different part numbers than you ordered? ?
In your previous post it says you originally had 162 numbers and they manually changed those numbers to the 149 numbers (which you are saying is incorrect).
Just trying to clarify correct numbers when I try to order.

I just checked EAS website and they sell it $385 + $95shipping + $33.20tax = $513.20.
Direct from Tesla only cost me $200 + $18.75tax + they delivered it free to my house = $218.75. What's the benefit of paying double?
Ended up being the wrong one. Dealer replaced with the correct part
So the correct cargo shelf has the z fold ? What are your thoughts on the shelf? Does it "jump" when hitting bumps? Doesn't seem like there's a "track" to keep it "up and down immobilized", but just a ledge to rest on.
I don't have one, but I think there are magnets in it to keep it held down.
My experience is similar to you and your wife's. Not a fan of the design. I often find it in the way. If it were not such a pain to swap all the parts, I'd offer to trade someone for their interior panels so I can just get one of those pull shades.
Ahhhh, after hearing all this I'm still on the edge about whether to install or not. The one I currently have (aftermarket from RPM) has the same "lip" except it can be folded up without moving the entire cover. I guess the dimensions on the OEM cover's lip are a little wider. I don't go into my trunk often but being able to fold the lip up to put groceries and what not into the trunk WITHOUT having to shift the entire cover is a blessing lol.
Very simple.... I ordered the original #s posted. They revised to the subsequent ones. When I arrived, all was correct but one parcel shelf was the same (non parcel) shelf I have so I took nothing because they advised they weren't allowed to sell me the correct part now because of an "internal bulletin" - whatever that means....
Wow, so you didn't even get the parts! That's odd that they sent the wrong C-PILLAR Panel (i'm guessing that's what you meant). I've got my parts ordered, and they DID mention they don't install, but we'll see what they actually send over.
Purchased the parts from the SC in Burbank, CA, and installed them over the weekend. As others have mentioned, reading the CCS install documentation or watching a video is very helpful.
I removed both the top and bottom panels to retrieve any clips that might have fallen off and provide an easier path to the seat belt bolt. I recorded a few videos of my process and am willing to post them if anyone thinks it would be useful. Please note, that I do not produce content and these videos are pretty low-budget.
Feel free to ping me if you have any questions.
I plan on upgrading my LR brake calipers to the Performance version next.

Tesla refused to install them at the shop. Moreover, they refused to allow me to order the parts and canceled my order.
I then went over there and ripped the guy and new a-hole saying to him “what I order parts wise is none of your business. Order my damn parts.”
(That exchange followed an appointment when I showed up to have them install the shelves, and not only did they have me sit there for half an hour before telling me they weren’t going to do that work: when I told them I want the parts and I’ll do it myself, the guy told me they didn’t have the parts because they never ordered them. That guy will never forget me because his name is associated with a complaint to the Better Business Bureau.)
I then set up a mobile appointment to replace the regular part, and asked the guy if he would install shelf part for me. (I did say that if it was gonna be a problem for him, or if he was to get in trouble, that I totally understood if heh didn’t wanna do it.) dude was like “ that’s not a problem at all… That’s a piece of cake.”
The Tesla Service app consistently allows the service centers to ignore what you say or what you ask for even when you are specific and give them part numbers. Love the car hate their service centers.
