I can understand that labour is a factor, and it's easier to fit the bits and bobs on the production line; but can anyone enlighten me as to why the charges are so extortionate, or am I way of the mark??

you've answered your own question

to retrofit xenons for example, its not just a case of fitting the light unit, you also need the washers and leveling, then reprogramming.

The alarm, again, wiring needs to be added and sensors etc...

Its easy to do this as the car is built as its just a loom change
