I'd say 200 euro but you could do yourself for maybe 80 euro including buying crack locking tool etc.

Rob is correct ,you might consider cam and crank shaft front oil seals as well ,there not expensive and worth doing when you/mechanic is that far .
Cam box cover gasket and cas seal also easy to do at this stage ,you've done/paid for the labour anyway
Best of luck

Brendan Dowling in Shantalla is a bit of a living legend. He owns an MX5 too : http://www.mechanicingalway.com/

Alternatively, give Greg in Complex motors in Ballybrit/Ballybane a ring for quote : 091 759446 or 087 0918020. I've had some work done by him in the past and hes good.
