So there should be NO $$ premium for Tesla's that have a lot of E options..
the only difference in price is kays and condition?

Yep, in theory - no idea if it is like that in the real world - I wouldn't be running out to buy a second hand EV of any brand.

For the DIY among us, the dish runs off 24v,, it gets this from the starlink modem, via their special cable.

Changing all the time:

Where do you get that info from Gav? All the info I can find says the opposite, things such as FSD ( Paid option ) stays with the car, and is in fact a selling point. This only changes, possibly, if the car is taken back by Tesla themselves.

Does FSD transfer to my next car?

No. FSD is a feature that has been purchased for that car and it is not currently transferable to your next car.
FSD will however transfer with the car to the next owner and if you are selling a car with FSD enabled, the feature should add value to the car.

Tesla Seems To Be Remotely Removing Features Such As Autopilot Functions On Used Vehicles | Carscoops

And

Tesla's Removal Of Features On Used Cars Appears To Be In Violation Of Its Own Rules

With a quick Google search. I wouldn't be relying on the manufacturer (Of any brand) to be transparent on such things, so I'm not surprised their blurb says what it does - it could be that their current policies are a result of the bad press when this all went down and they may not do it again, but I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw Electric Jesus....

Keen to fit one to the defender……

Struggling to find the spec sheet on the Aus page…..

OK found the spec page….but it doesn’t actually mention In Motion…

here are some images of mount ideas from the ESIM (Earth station in motion) user group.
the one in the thule style rooftop box would be easy if you already carry one of those things.

How much hacking is required?

We don’t have the room for the all the bits and pieces for the portable kit, be easier mounted to the roof rack.

It's mentioned in the app, but it does say "in select markets", so we might be on the list. The rate it's going it may not be long.
