How much is “Title and License” when buying a car in LA?

I’m assuming it’s a standard fee but I can’t find it anywhere. Obviously tax is what it is in the city of purchase, but are the others set fees or are they based on cost of vehicle, vehicle type, size?
Going to be buying a vehicle for my son in the next few weeks and trying to be prepared to know exactly what those three nonnegotiable costs will be. I hate buying cars and have happily driven our current vehicles for over ten years each...so I haven’t done this in a while.
Thanks.

Sales tax is going to be based on where car is registered I think. Not purchased. The other probably couple hundred at most.

3.50-350 depending on the purchase price.

Didn’t realize that...good to know. Should save a couple hundred right there.
I assumed title and license weren’t going to be a ton...just hoping to find exact numbers. Hate not knowing for sure.

Title and license about $150. Tax depends on where registered (9%+-) doc fees and convenience fees depends upon the dealer. ($18 + $200+-)

Something like this. We just purchased a new vehicle and I looked at the paperwork from it. Title & license were $130.50 and handling fee was $8.
I have no idea if it's different for used vehicles.
ETA: Sorry, corrected from Tax & license to Title and license.

title is around $100
license is about $40-$80 depending on type of vehicle
taxes will be based on your home address towns tax rate, thats around 10% of purchase price in most places
then dont forget they add finance charges so thats like adding another 10-15% depending on your credit score
