i bought a starter from murrays auto, (similar to pepboys, autozone) for $160. I waited for a couple days for them to get it in, and it ended up being the wrong part starter for the wrong car.
I returned it and exchanged it and waited another couple days for a new one. the car still wouldnt start, so i just brought it into an automotive shop. they just called me and said the 2nd starter I got from the place was STILL the wrong one. i am giong to get a refund from murrays since this is the second wrong starter. the shop qouted me $265 for them to get a starter. my mom knows these people and said they are reputable, and the guy said the reason the previous starters were only $160 is because they were for the SOHC non-vtec. he said for my GSR most starters do go for around $265 which is what is is charging me.
should i just have him do it and get it over with since i have been out of a car for almost 2 weeks because murrays cant get me the right part, or am i getting screwed here??
its $265 for the starter and another $125 for labor, what do you think? that sounds like an expensive starter
