I did the swap on my 90 coupe. I'd say the parts will be close to 2k, and labor probably would to. It took me about 15 hours of work, so you could imagine what a shop would want to charge for that. If you have all the resources it would be way cheaper to do it yourself if you know what your doing. Its not all that hard; the most difficult part is swapping the pedals, trust me. There is a company that offers a kit that comes with all of the parts to do it from donor cars. I forgot the name of it, but they advertise in MM&FF, and as I recall the kit is about $1800.
