Talking

The only way I know to approach this is to:

A-Find out what their labor rate is

B-Are you paying list for parts?

C-What hour/time factor are they using.

With this info, you can comparison shop.

Hope that helps.

What Brucelee said and it looks like an easy replacement if you want to DIY it. I have pics of the part at home from my '00 model. I'd guess about 2 hours to replace it since one end has to be reached from underneath. I don't know how much for the part, but I'm sure Sunset Imports has it for much less than you're getting it locally.
