I just went through this myself. I bought a new Aisin actuator on ebay for $500 and had it installed for $800 by my local mechanic.

I can pick one up from a local wrecking yard for about $500. Labor from the dealership is around $1100. Not saying I'm ready to drop this kind of cash yet, buy has anyone else gone this route to save money?
