It's not just Toyota though that overcharge on extras.
The last car I bought - a Subaru - the sales guy talked us through everything for the purchase, then they wheeled out the accesories chick.
Quite young, perfectly styled, shirt virtually open down to navel.
She looked disappointed as my wife was there with me.
I shudder to think what the bill would have been if I'd been alone.

Same when I got my Subi. They must be included with the dealer franchise....
She tried selling me tint which will help "protect my valuable asset". Then she said I need an application of "UV Plastic protection" for the dash. She was perplexed when I asked "OK so which one does not work if you reckon I need both?"
I passed thanks, and got a metal tint elsewhere and said "bugger that" to the UV goop.
I was horrified at the price of the towbar, and held off for 5 years before I ended up getting a Hayman Reece fitted for ~$550.
A tip: spend a few extra $$ for the flat cable, so you can tuck it inside the car when not in use. It is a good idea if you don't use the towbar very often, the connector won't get full of crap/corrode.
Cheers
