Default Alternator Cost?

02' RX 300 would start but wouldn't stay running. AAA came out and ran test...battery and starter good, alternator 'low voltage'. Had it towed to Toyota. What is a ballpark I should expect for this repair, assuming they find nothing else wrong? Never had to replace an alternator, so have no idea what is "fair" and expected.

thanks

Alternator is about a hour in labor, the alternator itself from toyota remanufactured is expensive. I ended up buying mine from another dealer that a friend worked at for a discount. It was about $300 shipped i think. I never got around to installing it my self. I still have the alternator, but I sold the car. If you want it PM me, you can surely take it off my hands.
