Just keep in mind your seatbelts contain pretensioning/locking detonators which are essential safety critical items. Be sure any used/take offs haven't been fired or "repaired". They likely can't be, but better safe than sorry.
Yes, if you have a Win laptop the required hardware is cheap and the SW is free. That said the (only/free) FORScan software and jargon in it are quite murky IMHO.
Here is a subtlety to keep in mind. After you update any changes to your rig, those will be sent back to the Ford "mother ship"...
Good resolution, serious bummer about the wasted hours. One has to be very careful of these differences between Raptor and non-Raptor.
For me all of my research before replacing my bumper pocket lights illuminated the difference between Raptor and non Raptor upfitter wiring.
I have serious doubts about paint, no matter how tough, to halt this cracking on our MIC tops. Such a heavily textured coating will certainly make identifying new or growing cracks significantly more difficult.
Any long term painted/coated folks inspect things closely after a year or so?

Be very careful with plastics and epoxies. Many absolutely won't bond to many types of plastic. I would lean toward a small custom aluminum reinforcement. As with painting, prep matters immensely. Things need to be very clean (solvent and spotless rags) before bonding.
