Urgent request: Help! I'm about to be eaten by a $500 alternator

[ekellock@juno.com (Edward J Kellock)]

'91 200qw, dead alternator.

Just got a call from the dealer.  The brushes look okay, the alt itself
is dead.  They do not recommend the Bosch authorized repair facility in
the area (had a bad BTDT with another customer who used them).  I'm going
to call Blau now and see how screwed I really am.  

Any help will be most appreciated!  TIA.
