The best thing you can do is locate a harness if you're looking to do an ENTIRE job on it...the rest would be fairly easy...I'd give you a hand w/it, except for the several hundred miles between your place and mine...

I just did mine 6mths ago. Its really not that hard. Finding a harness to use makes its easier or do one wire at a time like I did. As long as you take it one wire at a time its real easy to do.

Couple things to remember,
-Create a wire trolley(worth its weight in gold) to help you pass the wire from front to back and future ones.
-Use copper-tinned wire.
-Heat-shrink and solder your connections

Everything else just ask on here.......
