Way too much, probably around $250.

Your better off going to an autozone, Costco, walmart or sans club. All of them will not charge labor and battery will run between $80-$125 for a decent battery installed.

Edit: if you have AAA I hear that they will come to you and replace battery at reasonable price. Just call for price before.

Eeeeeh, your factory battery should last at least 4 to 5 years?

I'm at 5 1/2 years on the original battery. Don't forget, they're prorated. I think it's something like 8 years. I've been told if the battery fails a few times, the dealer will replace it for free. And I can confirm that's true. I had the battery replaced on the 330 no charge. No doubt it had to do with all the aftermarket stereo equipment I had in it

$160 on my 13 RX350. Yeah, would have been cheaper if I went to AutoZone but since my car was already in the dealer & got reimbursed for it, why not?

I just looked up what I paid last year fir a Lexus installed battery in my SC430.

1st is warranted for 84 months but that's prorated. My 39 month old Lexus battery cost me $146 installed with a 10% coupon prorated at 50%.

Full warranty is either for 2 or 3 Years. I don't remember which.
