Where is Homelink module on 2018 M3LR?

[Richwcarr]

I have a new 2014 MYLR and really miss the Homelink feature. I have two gates and a garage door so the MyQ is a pain to adapt to. But there are threads that indicate that Tesla is making to difficult/impossible to retrofit Homelink to the new MYs.

So, I decide to test the Homelink module from my 2018 M3LR in the MY. I watched all the YouTube videos showing the difficult-to-install bracket and such. But when I opened up the M3LR, it didn't look anything like that. I found a capped plug that looked like the Homelink connector (picture 1) But I couldn't find a module and bracket that looked like the ones in the YT videos. I did find a funny module under the frunk locking mechanism. (picture 2) Is that it?

Update: I found the same module on the MYLR, so it isn't the Homelink. I'm really baffled where Tesla put the homeland on my M3.

I believe early M3 had the module in front of the bumper as installation required removal of bumper. Most videos used MY was example but it's not the same location. Look at this video of installation on M3 from 4 years ago.

It is behind the front bumper.

I'm not sure you'll be able to enable the home link module in the my though. Tesla has since removed the ability for owners to do this. See the big diy home link thread for details.
