$350 sounds about right. It's not a hard job, it's just time consuming. Your window motors are probably gonna go soon, it's an Fbody thing. The motors aren't pricey, you should just buckle down and do it some Saturday. Shame you're not closer, I need to do my passenger one soon.

just like brandotron said do it yourself...there's a lot of good writeup to walk you through it.
getting a friend to help would make it easier first time took about 3 hours, second time like lil over one since we knew were everthing was at and what tools to use.

I did the Autotrix method, and pulled out the whole thing, took several hours.
Friday night, I did my drivers side using this method:

Started around 11PM, and was finished a little after 12AM. Including clean up and replacing a light bulb when I dropped my work light (after I burned my fore arm on the bulb). Much easier method.
