Hopefully, he or the sales manager will be better informed now.

Edit: Oh, and after that he walked it over to parts to get all the pricing and place the parts order.

Yep. Also worth pointing out that even though I'm handy with tools and what not, only dealer-installed parts are covered by warranty - not customer-installed parts. That, plus the lack of info concerning the parts and installation led me to bite the bullet and hand it all over.
Edit: Also, the MP3 player is a new head unit, not just a pop-in module. I'm sure the first problem encountered with the AudioPilot would be blamed (by the Service Dep.) on customer install of the head unit.

Since it's from the dealer, I assume you get to keep the original rims? If so, then maybe it will be worth it, there's folks (even some on this forum) which would buy the old rims? The stock rims are quality and light weight ~20lbs.

this smae question was asked to me by another person about the mps player. if he bought and had a dealer install the mp3 player does he get the old one back. the answer is yes, but you will probably have to ask for it back first. dont just assume you will get it back. pretty much just like any other parts. when a dealer replaces any part they throw away the old part just out of habit so if you want the old part you have to ask for it BEFORE they do the work. not after because if you ask for it afterwards it might be too late.
