$450.00 is not bad at all. My dealers labor rate is $109.88. I think the starter is just over two hundred? you'd be looking at about $500 plus tax.

Lexus quoted me $1100 for a starter replacement on my GS4. I took it to an import shop instead and got it done for $600

I'd be happy if I only had to pay $450. lol
