If the Pep Boys one has lifetime warranty, why not? If it goes bad, go get yourself another one. Then another. Then another. And so forth.

pepboys as a company, is evil.
autozone/kragen/advance is a better bet. also, Lexus now sells rebuilt alternators with a lifetime warranty.

Junk yard or salvage yard, but then again, if your considering spending $350, then your out of my league.
