We have 93 ford taurus with suspected bad blinker switch. We are thinking of changing it ourselves or with help from family (that actually knows something about car repair). ...just wondering if we should bother or just pay the 50 bucks for labor

If you are at all uncertain, and have a solid quote for the labor, you
supply part... you should do that.

It's not that hard to change if you are talking about the
multi-function switch. There are some shortcuts though, which you don't
know, and some long cuts, that you will discover if you try to use a
Chilton's manual. So I'd say $50 is not to much to keep you out of
trouble.

PS. The multifunction switch can actually be disassembled and repaired
if you are really cheap. Parts tend to fall on the floor though so use
a tray.
