I apologize for that large screen shot i uploaded. It's taking up a lot of screen space and I can't delete it.
Anyways, I went into the parts catalog again and copied out some info for all of us to learn from.

Model 3 parts catalog for the USB C data hub + wireless pad + the wireless dock lip

The parts seem to be interchangeable! Hear me out:
View attachment 556049 The wiring harness looks like exact same as the wires/plug we've had all along. Model Y and Model 3 part for this both are unchanged in the parts catalog with only one option.
ASY,CABLE,USB,1R HUB TO IP,M3
1100827-00-C (11) (It has a data plug which from the old one looks like a USB MINI-A port) (there's a separate 4pin 12v plug for power (i imagine for the USB C))

M3, CONSOLE PHONE DOCK PREMIUM ASY (5)
1112412-00-C (old - might still work without buying the new part)
1112412-00-E (new. From Daerik's video it seems like same as model 3 (maybe they finally updated to a single slot like he said in the video)

M3, CONSOLE PHONE DOCK PREMIUM MAT (16)
1112415-00-C (plain mat)
M3 MY, CONSOLE INDUCTIVE PHONE CHARGER (16)

(Did not include a picture)

Also since people asked, here's the USB C rear vent part #. It's updated on the 3's parts catalog as well so we have hope... and it looks like just a bolt in swap.
Rear Vent Assembly:
M3, CONSOLE, REAR AIR VENT PAN ASY, PREM (9)
1111072-00-C
M3, CONSOLE, REAR AIR VENT PAN ASY, PREM (9)
1111072-00-E

(all pics real life pics were scraped from ebay/tesla online forums for reference. these parts all came from model 3 old USB A)

How to access this area is from this tutorial:
12v Socket in Front bin - Tesla Owners Online

I believe the parts we need are:
For just front USB C + A: 1522264-00-B
For front USB C + wireless charging: 1547380-00-A, 1541234-00-B, + above ( i skipped (5) from the diagram)
For Rear USB C: 1111072-00-E (C was the old one, E is the updated one)

Too bad my service center doesn't answer their calls, I was trying to find out the cost of these specific parts. If the total cost is less than $300, i'm willing to do it!

Incredible work putting all that together. It does look very promising.

I can’t see how those replacement parts would cost $300. And if Tesla offered this as an actual retrofit upgrade I would definitely pay them to do it.

I am definitely interested in this as well. I think we can order all the parts using the exact part number by scheduling a service appointment

So am I right in thinking that the USB hub at the front of the car connects to the two USB ports at the back via that mini-USB (?) connector? From the looks of the images, it is USB power only (no data) at the back (and presumably that is still the case in the updated Model 3)

No. The rear USB ports only have power. The mini-USB connector is for the connection from the car's computer to the hub.

Ok thanks, do you know where the rear ports connect to?

My service center just answered the phone and is working up a quote for me. I'll share it when I get it.

Rear ports just connect to 12V power supply. There's a regulator to change 12V into 5V for USB-A. The new version is more complex as it defaults to 5v, but devices can negotiate 9v, but still just connects to 12V.

Great! They still haven't answered the phone or answer my email.... Tesla service right there is why I can't recommend Tesla wholeheatedly

 

[toprpm]

waiting qouta, would love to replace back one to USB c.

 

[MP3Mike]

I wonder if there will be any issues with the VC modules shutting the power down because the USB C version draws more power than it would expect with the USB A versions. (Does it auto-detect the type? Is there enough extra capacity that it won't care?)

 

[phtp]

Does anyone know if the new USB wireless charging pad (1541234-00-B) requires USB-C PD or what the voltages it requires?

 

[smatthew]

$261.11 for all 4 parts + tax.

 

[Durzel]

$261.11 for all 4 parts + tax.

Thanks. Do you have a breakdown by part?

I already have a Jeda wireless pad so don’t really need Tesla’s one, since I imagine it’ll do faster charging when connected to USB-C anyway.

 

[smatthew]

Front USB: $80
Rear USB: $100
Wireless (2 parts): $80

 

[Durzel]

Hmm.. that’s not as bad as I was expecting. Just need someone to buy the parts and have a go at fitting them

 

[Atari2600]

Front USB: $80
Rear USB: $100
Wireless (2 parts): $80

I was just looking at the rear USB but for that price I would do everything.

 

[AxlxA]

Front USB: $80
Rear USB: $100
Wireless (2 parts): $80

Can you tell me which store? I tried Dublin and Burlingame

 

[SummerRain]

The wireless charging pad + spacer only cost $80? Tesla online store is selling the old version (using 2 USB-A ports) for $125!

Yep i knew the prices were inflated on the store front end.

When i looked on ebay for used parts, they were only going for $45-50 for all the important stuff so i knew it would not be that expensive of a project. If someone can get me the parts(i'll pay of course), i'll do it on my car! I just can't anyone to answer my GD calls at Tesla Service Centers..... sigh

Here's the messed up part. The charging pad is $20. The spacer is $60. Unless my service center swapped the numbers.
