Tesla Lightbar delivery & install experience

[GalavantingGigawatt]

Very excited to have gotten my lightbar installed just a few days ago. Here’s my experience. I tried to make an appointment on the app, it was cancelled and told to wait for an email when available. I instead, went to a service center in person and talked to the service manager who was able to order the bar and complete installation within a week. I had to connect the bar myself ( easy 2 minute job) if you’re used to working on cars and molding. If not, maybe 15 minute then. The following day I drove down to LA freeway speeds. No issues at all, no extra wind noise, no failures. Average speed 70-80 with occasional 90 to pass. Got a chance to turn it on at night. Photos don’t do it justice but it pretty awesome. Controlled from either plugs and accessories or lights tab. You can assist the output same as bed lights. You can choose between ditch, food, or both.

It will be available probably this year for purchase. But for now it’s included for FS beast. One they finish those orders rumors are that it will be available.

Rumor was that they are working on a new mounting option/redesign so it uses a bracket rather than the process of gluing it to the windshield. Which mounting technique did yours come with?

Looks good and nice to be able to see at night.

It’s adhered to the glass. I didn’t have an option, just what they gave me.

has anyone gotten the long-awaited email to install the light bar?
or is it pretty much only because they asked and were persistent about it that they
finally got the light bar installed.

Very nice - didn't know it dimmed like the bed lights

I wish there was a NYC based shop on this caliber. This is awesome!

I couldn’t have been more pleased with my experience. I goofed and showed up a day early. They still took my truck late afternoon and had installation complete same day. I’ve heard horrible service stories but this particular center was to notch.
