If no one comes over, give me a call and I'll walk you though it over the phone. As Mike said, one beer job. Make sure you have a small pencil size file on hand and some electical connectors.

I have the retro-solutions kit, and haven't installed it yet. I know I need some filing to do. When are you planning this?
