If "speed costs money" and someone wanted to go faster, they probably wouldn't buy a Boxster.
You have a point, Al. I'm certainly not going to fork over several thousand bucks to have a LN-approved shop install the Solution in order to qualify for the 5-year warranty. However, Jake Raby indicated that DIYers should nevertheless go through the registration procedure, including sending LN the old bearing. It will provide proof that the Solution has been installed. That's really all I care about, because it's unlikely the warranty would be needed anyway.
