I paid $650 two years ago, but that included an oil change and tune up
plus a new water pump. The timing belt was $80. Labor for the timing
belt, water pump and fan belts was about $190. There may have been
other small charges associated with the timing belt. It is had to
separate them from the total job.

This past March, I paid about $319 (parts and labor) with a dealer
coupon to replace the t-belt on my 99 OBW. I had other work done
while the belt was off, but that's what the belt portion of the work
cost.
