welcome i got a perfect quite for you its 15 dollars above the price of the alternator at napa. its called buy a repair manual and do it yourself. there is nothing like the feeling of fixing these machines yourself and its far cheaper. if you dontlike or feel like repairing cars ride a bike, win the lottery, or make a friend. my best advise is if you too scared to try it yourself then stay away from buying general motors in the future. they r great cars at good prices and the parts r cheaper than other brands but they do break alot
