Best way to glue on a used OEM Beast bar

I took mine off actually. Should make a new thread about the process because DAMN that sucked.

Why did you take it off?

Why?

Have you tried ordering the brackets + fastners yet? I'm not seeing them in EPC at this time (and I can no longer find the lightbar either by doing a part number search) so I opened a service request asking to buy the parts over the counter. I'll report back on my success (or lack thereof).

I purchased my lightbar via EPC back in September, so I'm not expecting Tesla to reach out to me to offer the parts.

FWIW, here's the parts list that's needed:
�

Part Number	Description	Qty
2275529-00-A	BLT, FCS, M4x8, [088], G1009	4
1008842-00-A	BOLT, PF, M6x12, [98], G1409	2
2267108-00-A	LH OFFROAD LAMP BRACKET w PAD	1
2267109-00-A	RH OFFROAD LAMP BRACKET w PAD	1
2278818-00-A	]RIVNUT, M6, 0.5-3.0G, [8],G1009, CL, P15	2

Curious: how much $$ is the EPC lightbar?

I believe it was $2300

FYI that I placed my OTC parts order for the lightbar retrofit back in November, and despite it taking a while, my SC has informed me that my parts have arrived! I'm picking them up on Monday or Tuesday and will report back when I have them in hand.

Do you have a part number?

Do you have a part number?

Are we speaking of the part number for the brackets?

I posted the entire part number table earlier in the thread.

So what happened?

 

[hemiarch]

So in the interest of belt and suspenders security, I took my truck into my local SC which agreed to both sell me the parts and do the install. This was of course out of pocket and not warranty. My car is an AWD and the bar was purchased from another member. It was expensive at around $800 for parts and labor. The way I see it it’s like investing in a warranty to some extent because if it flies off I know where I’m taking it. To the people who now installed it, Tesla.
onsite how would play out in real life but that’s how I justified the expense.
Didn’t really have issues with the VHB but now the bar is up to spec with the post-recall bars out there.
