Chad-

While it may not be "politically correct" to do such things, some techs and dealers will install the accessories anyway. I do, I figure if I am getting some business from a customer it is better than none, and that customer will learn to have faith in me and my services, and eventually just buy everything from me anyway. It's all about trust, and comparative pricing.

If you like the dealer/tech that you are dealing with, and trust him to work on your stuff, then the only other reason you would go anywhere else is price, right? If your dealer could get the same equipment for around the same price, wouldn't you buy it from him? Sure you would! So I tell my customers to come to me with proof of a better quoted price, and I'll either match it or beat it, especially if it is a regular customer who spends money with me more than just occasionally. Most reputable dealers will do this, and it benefits not only you as a customer, but them as well to have repeat customers coming back on a regular basis. Communication between you and your dealer is key, and you may just want to go in and ask him this same question. If you are regularly spending money there, I personally cannot see a huge problem, but then again everyone is an individual, and you know your dealer better than I do. Good shooting, Pinwheel 12
