10 hours is what it took me to do since i had absolutely no experience doing it. Plus I got distracted by other stuff like lunch, dinner, and the Simpsons. Best thing would be to call around to different shops and get other price quotes. Better yet, drop by some shops with the door inserts already removed from the car and get a quote. This way you can keep the car while they do the inserts and it will also reduce the time charged.
