Running Boards and Roof Rails

hey just wanted to see if anyone worked a deal with the dealer when purchasing their vehicle for the running boards and roof rails. I currently have my deal at 38,500 for the 2014 awd with tech. (otd) They are saying the best they can do is 10% off. I believe they want around 730 for the running boards and 800 something for the roof rails. (before discount) I have seen them cheaper on ebay so i'm thinking they should be able to lower the cost. So i am just wondering what some of you guys paid from the dealer to get an idea if negotiating is even worth my time.
Thanks

Is that $730 and $800 installed, or just for the parts?

I paid $600 for the running board and $640 for the roof rail including installation and tax (8.875%).

My dealer didn't budge much on the running boards - I may have paid almost $1000 installed but this was in May of '12. I know I overpaid by about $100-200 but the total out-the-door price seems to have been pretty competitive at that time.

I think they leverage the fact that accessories installed at delivery have a better warranty and can be financed so they don't move much on them.
