I didn't do mine all in one shot.
I pulled the OE roof ahead of time & drove topless for a while.
The most time consuming part will be cutting through the OE sealant.
and that depends largely what method you use.
I didn't try using piano wire, I used an oscillating cut tool for most of it.
With the oscillating tool the trick is to NOT try and cut the sealant.
Just make a plunge cut, then move it sideways and it basically melts through the sealant.
The corners are the hardest part to deal with. I used a long thin kitchen knife to cut the corners from the inside (fronts) and from under the hatch at the back.
I would allow a full day & just take your time with it.
