What does it cost to replace a timing belt on a 1996 mazda protege?

Need to replace it and want to be prepared for sticker shock.

AllData estimates 2.5 hours of labor to replace the belt. A little more if you replace the water pump at the same time. Add cost of belt, perhaps tensioners or water pump and you could probably get it done for less than $500.

Call around to get estimates.
