Just got back from a trip to my local dealer to have my driving lamps activited what a ******* rip off.
£70 + VAT, Just for some guy to press a few buttons on a computer, What really ***** me off is that theres no other way around this it has to go to the dealers.
On the good side tho all the sales people had a look at my car it was the first one they have seen one like that, Plus a few customers had a good look at the car when it was there and I had some very nice comments about the look of the car.

Try MDP at Raglan for stuff like that, their labour rates are half what the stealers charge. My local LR dealer price matches what they quote so I have best of both worlds.

Looks like they've slipped you a crippler with that one.... 
ISTR someone was quoted £41 + vat for the BT upgrade - which takes a lot longer. I got mine done whilst they were carrying out the enhancement programme and didn't cost anything

I was charged £42 + vat to get my spots activated. Still, they have to earn a living I suppose.
