The beeper could be replaced from Radio Shack. Bring them the old one to match up. As for labor, ANY real repair shop has over head to pay, so it's not like a shade tree mechanic doing the work in his back yard. I agree some service shops charge more then they should, but what comes with it should be good, trustworthy service. Rent or mortgage's need to be paid, advertising, Wages, workers comp, insurance, electric ect. Not counting service training done for employees, franchise expense, special tools...Yes, there are a few bad apples out there, but not all. If you don't ever go to a seadoo dealer...it could be like the GM, (Goverment Motors). Or they could be out of business all together then no parts or new machines... Its a good thing to get a good deal, it's another when a company closes and the remaining jack up the prices as it the case now with the bad economy. Yeah, I'm a business owner I understand what happens. As consumers, being some what educated before going in to a dealer is key to keeping things on the up and up.
