Default Convertible Top

If this is in the wrong section I hope the mods will move it.
What does a new convertible top normally run installed, i know they're about three to four hundred for the new top, but whats the average cost of installation? Also does anybody know of a decent shop to do the job in North carolina, I'm located around Benson/Smithfield

$900 is about right for around my way, but there are only like two people in my town who will even do it
