So, I don't know what they were, I watched the videos on YouTube, I thought, cool that would be nice, went out and looked under my Mustang GT and it appears all Aussie S650's had them installed.
Yeah, all Aussie Mustangs are Performance packs.

Let me know how it goes. Regardless of where you got your car from, I believe any dealership can easily install Strakes during any service that requires them to get underneath. The good ones, at least.

Sorry meant to send this last week, the dealership installed them w/o question or charge. They changed my oils as well as remedied an ambient lighting issue in the driver's side interior door handle not working. It was working, just not clipped into place (it was hanging loose behind the door card/trim.

That's a good dealership, I would go back to them. The ones that charge you $200 and nickle and dime you the other quick fixes are the ones you never do business with again. I would never ask the dealership to strictly install the Strakes, only during services which they are already underneath the car and can easily drill them in.

With local (SW Mew Mexico) labor costs ranging from $185 to $290 per hour, I'm not surprised. Fact is, a local Ford Dealer oil change (Oil, filter, shop costs, and labor) is now over $120! And I though grocery prices were high?!

Sure is funny how the same folks who complain about paying a high rate to have a trained, qualified, experienced technician diagnose and repair thier vehicle are the same folks demanding we pay them a high rate to make a coffee (not referring to you, BTW).
