Ford dealer did mine at my 25K service without me asking. And it's not for just to protect kids in the front seat. My wife does not weigh enough to turn the passenger airbag on. Light never goes out with her in the passengers seat.

If this involves a re-flash, how will it bode for custom tunes?

Tell them not to touch the PCM.

Doesn't affect your PCM (tune). When I got mine done I made sure they didn't reflash my PCM. I told them I had a custom tune and they assured me it was a different modual that they update.

Same here....told them I had a custom tune and they assured me that they wouldn't touch the PCM. At the same time I told them about my Skipper 500 and they ordered me a new one. The best thing of all is that I had to leave it there like 6 hours because I had other places to be. When I got back I expected it to be outside with the rest of the cars, but the service manager told me he didn't want anything to happen to it, so he left it inside about 3 feet from his desk. He said he kept a close eye on it.

I received my notice in February or March. I'm suprised it took them that long to send yours.

Took my car in one morning and they checked out the VIN and told me my car is ok and that the early 05's arent affected.
