Thanks a lot for checking on that for me... I called autozone today and they said it would be $105 for a core charge with lifetime warranty...then at class today someone told me that they thought pep boys sold rebuilt ones for $45 ... now i want to do this right, but i dont want to spend a crap load of money on a car il be selling soon, at least im glad that if something bad was going to happen with the car at least it happened with me and not the new owner... i would have felt really bad. Oh, are there any websites that show how the heck i take that thing out of my car? (alternator)
