In the La Paz - Todos Santos area I have been quoted around one hundred US dollars.
I just do it myself.

Terry, the conclusive point made is that its no problem to just bring your papers and do it yourself. And to make it more clear why the agents
sometimes say one thing as opposed to another. I have never paid for the service since they do nothing for you, you must supply the docs and then
you're done.
Of course most of you are renters or homeowners or boat owners which is quite different than a visa to run a competitive business which you are the
owner/investor.
I think its very silly to use an agent.

I use an agent. Don't have to put up with dumb questions and stupid requests, (three copies instead of two).
I take him my FM2 and money...nothing else. He pays the fees, and files all the requested documents. What he doesn't have he makes up. I don't ask no
questions. 
Brings me my documents. We have a few tequilas and laugh about all the gringos silly enough to 'go it alone'.
Well worth the extra $50.
(Plus tequila).

I have a new FM3, never had one before. I usually travel to Mulege area to stay in our house. I have been doing this for 37 years now, always on a
tourist visa. What are the requirements to register this new FM3 ? Can I register it in Mulege or Santa Rosalia and renew it in San Diego? Does my
wife need an FM3? Thanks for any info.

Does one need to get new passport sized photos taken again for the renewal?

Tjbill, No new photos are needed. Only the documents mentioned previously. I.E. bank statements, proof of residentency, ( a utility bill)
and an application form.
Vince, Where did you get yur FM3? Register it there. I beleive it needs to be registered where your home is. In your case Santa Rosalia. If your
house is in both your names your wife should have one also...
Mexico!! Where two can live as cheaply as one.....but it costs twice as much.....
