From what Donnie posted the $175 I paid was a bargain. Sounds like his shop wants $600 labor to do his. Hopefully you will get a more reasonable quote.

There are lots of factors that play into pricing, If a vehicle needs the headlinner replaced there may be an hour labor in removing the original but... it serves as a guide for the new one. That job would go in and out of the bay in 4 hours at the most.
When one has been stripped there is no R&R. That vehicle could tie up a bay for a week.
Same applies to seats. Deliver seats that need the only skins replaced and they clutter the workbench for 4 hours. If the skins aren't correct when compared to the originals, They sit in waiting for reorder.
If the seats are stripped and delivered with aftermarket foam and skins the guy will have to figure out are they correct or not. He might whittle the foam down until it fits undersized skins then the seats dont look right in the car. Good luck to all
