For left hand drive cars, like the USA models, the trim piece in question is on the left wall
of the passenger footspace, or outside the right wall of the console. Starting at the "foot"
of the "hockey stick" shape, one pulls straight out toward the passenger door (or pry out).
It is rather difficult to get started, because Tesla used 4 or 5 clips to hold the "foot" in place,
where 2 or 3 might have been quite sufficient. Once started, it goes reasonably easy.
In your VIN 64nnn car, made late Nov or early Dec 2014, the TDC has about 5 inches of
cable on it, with the TDC head (the connector itself) stored behind the cubby on the driver's
side, and the short cable running across to the right behind the cubby where it joins the
wiring harness ... or so it appears in my 62nnn S85 made in (probably mid or late) Nov 2014.
When the Tesla console is installed (not easily user removable like some other non-Tesla
consoles), it is reported that it becomes difficult (or impossible) to lower the open "mouth"
of the cubby enough to access the TDC in its "classic" position behind the cubby.
So, it was reported (or guessed) that the installation of the Tesla console required
routing the TDC's cable to the right (rather than to the left in the "classic") and
the TDC connector itself was poked out to the right, to be accessed behind the
"hockey stick" trim. I have not yet seen this myself, but some pictures would help.
Question is, when your console was installed, was the TDC moved, or not?
In any case, you, or someone generally more flexible than I, will need to locate
the TDC in YOUR car.
I am also learning ... Does this help you any?
