On ebay, item #350074403864 $139.95 for both with bolts. Owners name is Christopher 609-399-2824 if you want to talk to him.He also has gasket kits. If you buy gaskets and tensioners ask him to ship for free,should be no problem. You will pay first and he will credit shipping back next day via paypal as long as you talk to him first.

MnXJ8:
I guess you were asking about cost including labor. Parts are about $150- $250 with gaskets at the shop and I would expect ther book rate would be about 4-5 hours, at between $90- $175. Dealer $225. And that wide range is about what people have reported for total price.
