Repair cost really varies with your demographic location. You really need to call around local shops to get the best price.

* Alignment usually comes at a fixed price. I am sure what you mean by fix steering. If you mean the steering wheel is not straight, alignment will fix that.

* Brake job usually is charge for about 1.5 hours plus parts and supplies. Or buy $20 Haynes manual and about 2.5 hours of your time and do it yourself and save about $100
- Raise vehicle
- Remove tire
- Use 14mm socket and ratchet, remove to caliper bolts
- Remove old pads, install new pads (just as you removed them)
- Use a C-clamp and push caliper piston back into the caliper
- Install caliper into caliper bracket and tighten the bolts
- Install tire and lower vehicle.
- Now do do the other side.

* Dash light
- Remove two screws on the top of cluster bezel.
- Pry and remove bezel straight out.
- Remove 4 screws holding the gauge cluster. (2 top center, and 2 bottom far left and far right)
- Pull cluster out on an angle, it is easier.
