Most all shops use the Chilton Labor Guides for labor time on repairs.

Make sure you shop around for good part prices.

I advise my clients to find this information Labor/parts price.

then they can call around and shop for the best price,

if the labor cost is right but the part is outrageous,

then supply the part (do not tell the shop that you will be supplying the part or they may try to raise the labor price).
