The rest is just creating mountings, wiring and a controller.

I give it another 2-5 years and there will be commercial solutions where you buy kits for many cars. Then when Tesla stops making cars (it will happen) and focus' on just battery & motors it will be even easier.
The Tesla computers to control the batteries & motor, is what I am concerned about. So you're saying ditch the Tesla computer and install some 3rd party controller? I get it. like you said, not trivial. My skill/knowledge level is way below that. I'd try a purpose-made kit, though.
