Default average price for labor to install a new clutch...

What's the average price. or what did you pay?

My dude wants $450. I need to save money, basically to pay rent and eat lol.

So what is the cheapest price I should expect paying for a decent job?

I was struggling with this too. I called a bunch of shops and I settled on drift motion. They said they would do it for me for 250 labor + cost of new flywheel bolts(80). Although if I could reuse my old flywheel bolts that would save me 80 bucks right there, but not sure if I can. I'm taking it to them tomorrow
