really not a hard job to get wrong all you need is a holesaw, crimper, cutter and a drill.

i fitted one to my 205 in under half hour, and that included taking out the heater control panel to fit it where the knob is.

So long as you've got the places sorted to fit the senders it won't take long at all. Your oil temp and pressure guages you could fir like i did in that thread not so long ago. A/F ratio will be a bit more of a problem as you need to weld a bung onto your exhaust, once thats done it will a easy. Let me know if you want to do them though as i've got 5 weeks off now so loads of spare time.
