how does it actually work? cause it already has the airmatic, does the dealer install this or is it a home installation? will it have any affect on the warranty?

Do a search for a detailed answer, but it's essentially they're two metal pieces that the airmatic uses to judge how low the car should be.

It's an easy install. I've never done it personally, but it took the guys @ my shop about 5 min. to lift it up & do it.

It won't effect your warranty at all; it's really easy to swap these out for the original ones. Just have to make sure you save them.

easy to install, put the car in the raised position, turn the wheels to full lock to access one side or the other. take the key out of ignition so it doesnt drop to the floor when removing the link. Pope the stock links off with a screw driver,a couple 10mm wrenches to remove the ball studs, then replace.

what are the pros/cons to having the dealer just lower the car through airmatic?

You're talking about STAR lowering (I'm guessing)

It's my understanding that the links are more consistent (from car to car) and can be reversed easily.

not to mention some dealers don't perform it (mine didn't when I had an MB!)
