The wiring should be pretty easy and wouldn't take an auto sparky long to swap it over. Mine was pretty easy and took a couple of hours but i have a different motor so didn't need to worry about that side of it.

I've just got lifted springs but that'll be changing soon most likely. Wouldn't know how much an auto sparky costs, haven't needed one since I'm a sparky myself, and the original steering shaft connected straight up to the new body
