...He should not charge more than $100 for that. Heck, anyone good with Saabs can rebuild the regulator pack for 4 bucks, needign only a screw driver and solder and a soldering iron and maybe a pliers.
If he is a Saab indy, he knows about replacing only the regulator pack. Only a Saab indy should be trusted with alternator removal if that is warranted. If this is a mechanic who knows nothing about saabs, he will screw this up, as a Saab alternator is not obvious on how to remove it, specifically it needs to be tilted to remove the large retaining bolt, and this step is not intuitive or obvios, as there is a hidden torx screw involved.
