Just a 'tail ender' to this thread. I emailed Auto Classic this morning to go ahead with the 'Street Legal' tint and reminded them that they'd given me a $50 discount, meaning it was $645.

I did this purely because of the Comfort Access risk.

They advised me "The price in May when you purchased the car, for Street Legal was $695, the price has gone up at the start of this financial year to $795...", she then offered me a further discount which effectively made it the same as the pre-July RRP.

WTF? $100 increase? I expressed my objection at this in no uncertain terms, but went ahead with the 'double discount'.

The explanation I received back was "We have had to make this increase mainly because of the increase in tax; unfortunately this is beyond our control." - not quite sure what that means, but as per usual, the customer loses.

Bah.
