-start off with the two hardest bolts, if you fail there then stop and take it to a pro. If you succeed the rest of the install will be cake!
yup def the best helpful hint out there. start at the hardest place and work backwards.. also just be patient and if something goes wrong step back get something to drink, think about it and then try it again. Im the most inpatient person in the world, being a mechanic def helped me calm down. thankfuly im not in it anymore and moved on to a "better" career but patients is key in working on anything.
