They would also like to charge you a lot of money to install all of it at delivery. With all of the people on here who got theirs set up with a phone call, I call BS.

That's because you don't know how the activation process works.
Unfortunately, many dealers also don't know how it works. That's why we get all these posts about dealers charging a ton of labor.
I've only seen these for sale by actual dealers, and I've not heard a case where an internet dealer didn't provide the PIN when asked. Given that it takes literally 3-5 mins to do, assuming the module has a good cell signal, I'll bet requires the selling dealer, even if they sell it on the internet, to follow-up with the customer and provide the PIN. You just need to ask. If the Ford Dealer you purchased it from refuses I'd post that here and get Customer Service involved.

Unfortunately, Ford doesn't require anything of the dealer per-say.
The issue is the instructions are kind of hidden and somewhat confusing for techs to find. Dealers who have never installed one have a difficult time finding the information. The link printed on the box is actually the worst method Ford has for locating accessory install instructions.
Getting Ford customer service involved won't help, because they typically have even less information on these kits than the dealer has.
be warned - banner ford is (apparently) a one man company!
if you want your cell phone module activated - ONLY Brad can do it M-F, 9-5p
how stupid can a company be!
Yeah, it took me a few days to hear from them after a few messages thru eBay. I ordered it with the overnight service, they were nice enough to refund the shipping. Once I got Bobby or Brad on the phone it didn't take but a couple minutes.
I ended up contacting Banner Ford via eBay mail and they got it done for me. I definitely think it's a matter of service reps and technicians not knowing what to do or the product itself.
