EV-TV seems to have removed them from their site. They used to offer full plug and play kits.

Regarding the Telsa Model S MCU. The Tesla MCU needs to be programmed to match your car. DIY replacement is not possible without this reflash. Due to this, the unit needs to be sent out for repair should you need the eMMC replaced to due an unresponsive MCU (black screen). There are a couple of people that will do this repair and/or rooting of the MCU. Rooting the MCU will cause a disconnection from the Tesla system network and no further updates will be available.

TMC users @wk057 (jason hughes) and @Ingineer seem to have the process to do this.
