I haven't seen a DIY either. You might want to review the pictures at "realOEM" to get idea of how it goes together.

With respect to warranty or not, isn't this a safety item? Doesn't the dealer have obligations beyond the warranty for safety items? Maybe not but I think others have reported the dealership covered it. If you do it yourself, be sure to review the tsb and "do it right". There is a tab that needs to be ground off.
