Hi Greek,

I don't believe that you should be forced to take any "extras" if you do not want them. Window etching is good especially if your vehicle is stolen. Its a piece of mind thing.
I would check into other companies that do window etching if you are interested in getting it done( aftermarket).
If the dealer insists upon this, I would walk away from the deal or try to have them throw in something for free such as window tinting. Just my own opinion.

Good Luck

I refused to pay that and some some $300 administration fee. Don't be soft, walk away or negotiate something else in your offer.

You shouldn't have to pay it. I said I didn't want it and but they did it anyway for free. Although I did pay full MSRP (when the coupe first came out) so they made a killing anyway.
