Dealer said step 5 work is done at dealer
Is it onlly step 5 or step 4 as well.
I was wondering why the steps seem so redundant until the dealer told me when she helped me build my car that step 5 is dealer install work.
What stinks is that the dealer charges a lot for install so there was not much happiness looking at the part prices.
I remember someone posted that they had the JCW aero kit installed at the docks?? or before the dealer got the car??? The dealer told me it and the JCW Engine mods only gets installed at the dealership, not in England or the docks.

My MCS is currently in port getting a JCW aero kit installed. The JCW aero kit is only installed at the dealer if you order it later (post vehicle pickup). I had originally ordered my MCS with some JCW options (shift **** and hood scoop) and laughed when my MA told me that there were install charges (not insignificant either). Those type of options are considered dealer installed options. It also goes for any wheels that you upgrade (those are EXPENSIVE install fees). I didn't end up ordering them, and probably won't now.

There are a few of the step five options you can get installed at the VDC (Vehicle Distribution Center) if you order them along w/ your car. Off the top of my head they are: JCW Aero Kit, JCW Cross Drilled Brake Rotors, Sport Stripes, iPod Adapter, Driving Lights.
The VDC install prices are usually a bit less than what the dealer's going to charge you. If there's stuff you want
and the price is high then make it a point of negotiation when you place your order.
