i cant give you a place in cali, but here in austin the dealerships charge about $475, smaller shops will do it for around $400-430. All these price quotes include replacing the timing belt, water pump, and all the oil seals (crankshaft, camshaft, and in most cases, balance shaft).

...just to give you an idea of how much you should be lookin to pay...try a couple reputable, non-dealer shops and you'll probably get similar price quotes.

timing belt alone is usually around $300 if you dont do it through a dealer, but generally you'll want to replace everything once your in there cuz labor costs to replace an oil seal later on down the road are gonna be almost as much since they'll have to take the timing belt off again.

hope this helps.

not in NorCal, but in SoCal... http://metrohonda.com/coupons.htm

They do just the timing belt for $269.95

My friend went to Diamond Bar Honda and they matched this price for him. See if your dealer will do the same.
