When you say soft top, did you just buy the material?
It's a real PITA to install if you have to remove the old material and install the new one, ask me how I know!
If there is really a shop that only charges $300, let me know and I'll gladly pay them next time, definitely not worth the 10+ hours it took us!

Its not too bad of a job, use the the dyi found on the site and you should be fine. Ive done three softop replacement jobs. Its just about taking your time and having all the ncessary tools. My first replacement took me 12hrs and the next two about 6/7 hrs each. I say its worth it if you learn how to do it. Shops charge around $700-800 for our cars i believe.
*$700-800 according to my experience when i was looking for a shop to replace mine.
