Survey for Beast Owners With Lightbar

[TeslaKen]

Dear fellow Beast owner, if you are reading this topic, you likely have your lightbar already installed. Despite several attempts to get my lightbar installed I have not been successful. Most recently, I was told to stop asking, that Tesla is installing these light bars in the order that Cybertrucks were delivered. In order to ascertain any sort of pattern or practice to Tesla's installation of light bars on Cyberbeasts I am starting this survey thread. If you are a Cyberbeast owner please list the following:

A) Date You Took Delivery of your Cyberbeast
B) Date You had your Light Bar installed
C) Service Center location that Installed your Lightbar
D) Method used to obtain your lightbar - This could be you received a notice from Tesla to come in and get it, or you scheduled a service appointment in the app, or any other method by which you came to obtain your lightbar.

Thank you in advance for answering these questions!

PS. If by chance you have the AWD version of the Cybertruck and were still able to get a lightbar from Tesla and have it installed, please share that info as well.

C) Fremont- Kato
D) I added to existing service request for "Accessory Installation" of Light Bar and Wheel Covers. I was informed on 2 previous visits that "Wheel covers were in, but will have to order Light Bar", upon the Light Bar being received I was notified and scheduled a Service appointment.

It will need to go back though as what I believed to be a wiring harness hernia in the front of Light Bar turned out to be a glue glob that is aesthetically bothersome.

Not to throw this off topic however those that use automated car washes with brushes, though I know not advised have you done so with a light bar on or would you? I bring mine through the car washes with the brushes and I’ve had no issues still waiting for my light bar, though.

A. Late August,
B. Mid October
C. Aurora, Co
D. Just schedule an installation, no email or notification, just tried it. I believe I was the first to try this method, I contacted and got an appointment early October, SC rescheduled because they hadn’t received it yet, which I believe triggered the order.
note: I posted about this method after I got it installed, because, selfishly I believed once the word got out about this method working, it would stop working. Which seems to be the case.

Austin Tx
Scheduled Svc Appt for recalls, asked for light bar install. Tesla came back and said not available. When I saw many others getting theirs in late Dec/early Jan, I texted them to see if it’s now available. They said yes, but would have to re-schedule appt so that they had enough time. Hopefully will be happy this afternoon picking up the Beast!

4. Was visiting relatives in Fl from Texas. Tried several times to Schedule a appt in Houston area. All eventually cancelled when lights never came in. Took a shot, made appointment for light bar installation here in Fl. Never did receive the light bar email. I think I am done with any missing items from my original purchase of CB. Love my truck.

Requested through app to add this on to an existing scheduled service (spare tire install), explained that I had an accessory rack on order (Urander) and would need the lightbar installed before I could install the rack (as rack would cover the area for light bar electrical connection). They checked with their parts department for availability, confirmed shortly after that they could do it, and scheduled it onto the same service date. They were very accommodating when I explained the reason. Prior, I was told to wait for email.

D. Did the normal request for accessory through the service section for wheel covers and light bar install. They didn't tell me I couldn't get the lightbar until I was at the service center. Said wait for the email.
