the dealer is in the middle and has policies of his own.
When I needed a windshield for my 9K I didn't go to the dealer, but I asked them who they used for glass when I was in for a minor warranty item on my wife's 9-5. He told me who they liked best, I called that company, and they did the work for a very reasonable rate. But if I'd simply had the dealer do it he would have charged me double what I paid. He doesn't have to do the work, but he still has to be there when something is wrong, so he's gonna make something off the job.
You can agree or disagree with that policy, but that's how it works. So go in knowing that you can work around it, just like buying parts from eEuro is cheaper than the dealer. Don't complain about the dealer, just work around him.
