Default DIY threads that are needed??

So I have just completed ordering a crap ton of different things for my 250 and was wondering if there are DIY threads that may be needed. I did a search for most upgrades that I could think of (i.e. lights, cluster led's, HID's, etc.) some of them I didnt really have any luck finding. But I figured since I was about to install/modify lots of stuff anyway, why not just take a few extra minutes to take a few pics of the process. With that being said, is there anything that you guys can think of that you would like to see done?

I think he's offering to put together a DIY on some of those items he plans on installing if needed...

LED turn signal conversion (not the mirrors)

Are load resistors necessary if flasher relays are used? Or are both necessary?

No clue man. If I were to do this mod, I'd have to do some research on it first.

For now here is a list of the stuff I've got ordered..if you see something that's not in here and would like to see it done..let me know. I can't promise I can do it cause it might not be a goal I have for my ride..but I'll try!

Flyaudio nav install in non nav
HID Install
Interior lighting convert
Cluster/dash led swap
Rear sway bar install
Coilovers
Steering damper install
Cold air intake install
Chrome door lock install

That's all I can think of for now that might actually require a DIY..
