Question A trip to the dealer paranoia

Well, it looks like I have to take my car to the dealer for a warranty service.
My AC/heater blower motor makes screeching noise.
Since they have to pry open my entire dashboard to replace that blower motor; I have several questions:
1. Will the dealer open the hood on my car? I've heard a story that some dealer automatically void warranty, the moment they see dual cone air filter.
2. I also have a Procede tune on my ECU that has a cable bypass through the glove compartment. Will it become an issue? I can always say it's part of my ipod or something.

Don't get me wrong, I can take off all my tunes but it's -6 C in my garage and -18 C outside.
