Is there a 12V accessories plug near front to plug in Radar Detector. (Like on Model 3) ?

I plug my Radar Detector in my Model 3 into the 12V Plug that's in the front console. It's a little unsightly, but not a problem.

Is there one in the Model S Plaid? I haven't found mention or photos of it yet? Tesla Raj had a nice walkthrough of the car and there was some sort of plug next to the USB C connectors, but I'm not certain if that was a 12V plug.

I'm going to assume most will reply with... "You're buying a $100k+ car, just get it professionally installed" But that is the very reason I can't afford to, and hell if I'm going to take apart a $100k+ car and DIY it.

Does anyone know?

There is. It’s below the 2 USB C plug ins. I had to buy this to reach the mute button on my Escort Redline.

Sorry, I should have updated my post as the manual became available.

Now to someday wire it up, or "temporarily" permanently use the 12v outlet as I did for 2 years on my 3

I don't have the 2021 yet, but in my 2017 there is a plug available for power (above rear view mirror) which is a super easy DIY job (< 30 mins). I did it for my BlackVue dashcam. Here is a great thread on it - Dash Cam Install for Model S

Detailed install - BlackVue DR750S-2CH installation in 2017 Tesla Model S

Unfortunately the refresh doesn't have that option. I'd like to hardwire mine but idk where.

Does it not have the grill anymore? Or it does have the grill, just no left over connector like previous years?

No connector like previous years.
