Do it yourself and save yourself a bunch of money. It's really not hard to do.

These two links will tell you virtually everything you need to know:

http://www.geocities.com/eclipsed4ev...procedure.html

http://www.2gnt.com/www/corbin/rebuild.html

You'll want to replace your pulleys and probably your water pump while your at it. You may also want to replace the tensioner. You can easily spend a couple hundred in parts alone so it might be worth doing/learning on your own. I was deathly afraid of doing my own timing belt for fear of ####ing up the timing, but once I did it, I realized it's rather easy, albeit a bit time consuming your first time.
