Quote From Bmw For Alarm

This is what Pacific BMW wrote for installing an alarm on the 08 128i:Please leave your feedback about the cost.





HI,
MY NAME IS RUSSELL AND I AM A SERVICE ADVISOR HERE AT Pacific BMW, THE INSTALLATION OF ALARM OF YOUR VEHICLE WILL COST APPROX $1000 FOR PARTS, LABOR, AND TAX INCLUDED. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

They missed a decimal point somewhere. I bought the alarm from Dan for $150 I think and installation/activation was $130.

EDIT: US dollars.

Well, not sure if they'll price match a dealership in a different country.

You should tell them that due to that ridiculous quote you will not do any business with them ever again. Shouldn't be more than 500 for everything.

Think I paid $200 for the kit from Dan @ United

Installed it myself.

Paid $210 to program.

My selling dealer wanted $475 for the program!
