Budhayes3 would be the one to ask about Toyota labor. I'd think they charged 3-4hrs customer pay time... If I were doing it on the side it depends on how well I know/like the person

Its a pretty simple job... I'd probably knock it out for 150-200... Depending...

A couple hundred yen should cover it.
