I know we are all a bunch of DIY people here but maybe this will come in handy for someone in southern California anyway.

I recently attended the MOD 09 event in Cypress and I won a great gift certificate from South Coast Mitsubishi for a free timing belt service for any Mitsubishi vehicle.

I'll have trouble using the certificate since I live in Arizona and it's over 750 miles round trip.

I spoke to the South Coast Mitsubishi Service Department and the certificate covers the cost of the timing belt and the labor to install it. That is about $370 value for a 4-cylinder car and about $470 value for 6-cylinders.

I'm asking $110 including shipping from Arizona by UPS 2-Day letter. You'll receive a multi-page certificate made out to MOD 09 and signed by the Service manager to cover charges for the above work.
