Oh I know they are. Not only is that because they are NAPA, but because they are the only auto parts store besides CarQuest in the area. CarQuest had the alt at the same price but were a lot slower to ship it. Oh how I long to return to civilization...

Napa is screwing you, Autozone has rebuilds for the 8v $94.99 and 16v for $59.99. Hope that helps.

I think fate has determined my scirocco will never run again. After losing my alt yesterday, they ordered another. I was a bit suspicious when the part was listed for 8 and 16v with ac as I remembered you all said 8v 16v ones weren't compatible. Lo and behold, the alt that came in today has way different mounting points. For some reaosn, the part # on my old alt is listed as being for a Quantum and is also listed for over $250. There are 2 junkyards around, though not real close by. Unfortunately, the people at the dorms here with cars are exceptionally stingy about loaning them out and neither yard is accessible by bus. I need to have my car driveable by Monday morning so I can go get the Saab. I have to pick up 2 friends in Denver for the week on Friday (not this one, next one). I don't have a backseat and don't feel real secure about ferrying them around without one as cops are quite abundant here. I work 9-5 Sat and Sun so I would basically need an alt by tommorrow, although I could work some time off from work over the weekend if I had to. I really don't know what to do, I've been planning things around an alt and now it's fallen through 3 times. The person selling the Saab has been more than understanding but I can't keep delaying things before he just says forget it. Please, anything you can do to help or any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Yes, I'm blatently begging here.
