Dead alternator :(

[Gucci]

Just been driving home and noticed my gauges not as bright as usual, started looking at all the other instruments in the car and they we're gradually getting dimmer too Pulled off the motorway, turned lights down to sidelight only and used as little electric as possible to get home (fans off, no wipers etc)

Any idea's on the quickest cheapest place for a new/working alternator for a glanza?!

can't seem to find any cheap ones about? Is it specifically a Glanza alternator that I need or do any other toyota models fit? i.e. corolla, yaris etc
